AIP Center for History of Physics History of Physicists in Industry records, 2003-2008.
Collection of oral history transcripts, audio tapes, and administrative files for the grant funded project History of Physicists in Industry conducted at AIP's Center for History of Physics by Joseph Anderson and Orville Butler. Includes interviews with people from: 3M (Gary Boyd, Charles Bruzzone, Mark Debe, David Hoyle, Thomas Hunter, Michael LaClair, Denny Lorentz), Agilent (Devon Dawson, Curt Flory, James Hollenhorst, Mel Kronick, Steve Newton, Darlene J. Solomon, Robert Taber, Greg Van Wiggeren), Corning (Doug Allen, M. K. Badrinarayan, Alan Evans, Donald Keck, Dan Nolan, Jim Scott), Exxon Mobil (Thomas Halsey, Hubert King, Richard Polizzotti, Bernard Silbernagel), Ford Research (Lee Feldkamp, Gint Puskorius, Gerhard Schmidt), General Atomics (Stuart Leslie, David Baldwin, David Gouquet, Chris Hamilton, Woodie Jarrett, John Rawls, Constantin Scheder, Arksl Shenoy, Tony Taylor), General Electric (Tom Anthony, Bijan Dorri, James Lommel, Harry Ringermacher, Jon Schenck), Honeywell (David Arch, Robert Carlson, Barry Cole, J. Allen Cox, Burgess Johnson, Kathy Juneau, Jane Kaufnberg, Dan Youngner), IBM (Charles Bennett, Praveen Chaudhari, Mark Ketchen, John Slonczewski, Thomas Theis), Kodak (Ray Curtin, Ed Furlani, Gil Hawkins, Jim Milch, John Spoonhower, James Stoffel), Lockheed-Martin (David Chenette, Rick Kendrick, Jeff Newmeyer, Patrick Perkins, Jessica Perrine, Martin Walt), Lucent (David Bishop, Eric Isaacs, Cherry Murray, Loren Pfeiffer, Phil Platzman, Anthony Tyson, Alice White), Raytheon (Mark Baldwin, Dan Flatin, Jeff Holley, Taylor Lawrence, Doug McKay, Don Power, Mark Russell, Linda Wagner, Colin Whelan), Texas Instruments (Thomas Aton, Dennis Buss, Richard Chapman, Laurie Crim, Robert Doering, Joseph McPherson), Xerox (Steve Bolte, Charlie Duke, Howard Mizes).
The History of Physicists project is the first systematic study of the organizational structure, communications patterns, and archival records of industrial physicists in the U.S., and it provides general guidelines for understanding and documenting their work. The study confirms that the organization and management of industrial R&D is volatile, changing in response to economic cycles, new managers and management philosophies, and a variety of other factors. It also confirms that historically valuable records that document R&D are at risk and, in fact, are often scattered and lost.
