<head>Biographical Note</head>

<bioghist>
<p>Morris Weisfeld received his B.S. from Brooklyn College in 1949, his M.A. and Ph.D. from Yale University in 1951 and 1954, respectively.  He taught mathematics at the University of Chicago, the University of Southern California, University of California at Berkeley and Harvey Mudd College before joining the Duke faculty in 1967 where he taught sophomore calculus and applied mathematical analysis.  His research focused on the structure theory of rings and computational mathematics.  He served as the managing editor of the Duke Mathematical Journal during the early 1970s.</p>
