When I finished high school in 1954, I had been admitted to several colleges around Philadelphia, since going away would add room and board to the cost. As a B student with As in math and some science courses, I received no scholarship offers, and there was no such thing as need-based support. While deciding what to do next, I looked for a summer job and came upon an ad in the Philadelphia Inquirer’s help-wanted section for a lab technician at the Eldridge Reeves Johnson Foundation for Research in Medical Physics. Hosted by the University of Pennsylvania, the foundation was based on a legacy from the founder of the Victor Talking Machine Company, which was later swallowed up by RCA. It seemed interesting so I called them and was interviewed on a Saturday morning.
期刊介绍：
The IEEE Annals of the History of Computing serves as a record of vital contributions which recount, preserve, and analyze the history of computing and the impact of computing on society. Where possible, first hand accounts of events and activities are recorded with minimal editorial change, and scholarly reports of analyses of the historical record from archives and personal contact are published so as to better understand both the past and the future of our field.
