Richard Feynman is co–winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Son of Melville Feynman, 1895 immigrant from Minsk, Russia.
Richard’s resume notes Far Rockaway High School, MIT, Princeton, the Manhattan Project, Cal Tech, and Challenger Disaster Commission.
He went to MIT in Boston, because he had been blocked from attending Columbia University by its Jewish quota. Very upstanding people.
Feynman: “Scientific advance is the confidence in the ignorance of experts”
