rlj@math.umd.edu December, Notices of the American Mathematical Society, 1496-1500 Forty-one mathematicians interested in the development of mathematics among African Americans and other minorities gathered at MSRI in Berkeley on June 21-23, 1995 for a mathematics conference. They were joined by thirty-eight undergraduate and graduate students, whose perspective was sought on critical issues facing the profession. The Conference was funded by MSRI, and the Department of Energy. Since interest in mathematics was the common bond for participants, the bulk of the conference was devoted to talks in a variety of areas such as Differential Geometry, Dynamical Systems, Mathematical Biology, Astrophysics and Numerical Analysis. However, discussions on how to overcome the barriers to participation in mathematics by minorities played a central and vigorous role. One can ask the same questions about this conference that Lenore Blum asked in her description of the Women in Algebraic Geometry Workshop, (Notices, 40, #7, September 1993, 860-861) and give the same answers plus one. I paraphrase Lenore's question, "Clearly such a workshop would be a stimulating and worthwhile experience for any budding research mathematician; and so the question arises, why have a special program for (African Americans)? Is it because (African Americans) have to learn mathematics in a special way? To the contrary, it is to create an environment where (African Americans) have a chance to do and learn mathematics in a way that most successful (white) male mathematicians take for granted."

JOINING THE WORLD OF THE MATHEMATICIAN
Compiled by Evelyn Hart If you feel a need for inspiration, try one of the resources below. Some have long interviews or biographies with mathematicians and others are much shorter. Some have information on careers that have been chosen by mathematicians. Some are on the World Wide Web.
I am always eager to find more sources, so let me know if you find a good source that is not on this list.
  • Mathematical people: profiles and interviews
    editors Donald J. Albers and G.L. Alexanderson, introduction by Philip J. Davis.
    QA28 .M37 1985 in Cooley Library, or borrow the department's copy from the shelves in the department lounge.
  • More mathematical people : contemporary conversations
    edited by Donald J. Albers, Gerald L. Alexanderson, Constance Reid.
    QA28 .M67 1990 in Cooley Library
  • Black Mathematicians and Their Works
    edited by Virginia Newell, Joella Gipson, L. Waldo Rich, Beauregard Stubblefield, published by Dorrance, 1980.
    The departmental copy is on the shelves in the departmental office, or you can get it by interlibrary loan.
    It contains research papers of African-american mathematicians as well as brief biographies in the back. After the biographies is a very interesting appendix of letters regarding the rights of mathematicians to attend conferences in their field.
