Workbench

Chicago, Illinois, November 1961. Here's another image of Dad at the lab.

This would never happen today.

Chicago, Illinois, November 1961. My Dad enjoys a cigarette at his work desk, which stood adjacent to the lab bench.

At the bench.

Chicago, Illinois, 1962. We don't have many photos of my Dad at work, so this one is special.

Working from Home

Suburban Chicago, November 1957. The microscope tells me that Dad is focused on a work project.

An idea that didn't work.

My Dad did his best to convince me that a career in the natural sciences would be interesting. I took a different path.
