    Dr. Theodore William Chaundy (1889-1966) Theodore William Chaundy was born in Broad Street, Oxford, where his father John Chaundy ran a print shop It was from here at the age of three that he watched Gladstone arrive to deliver a lecture at the Sheldonian across the road. He went to school at the other end of the street, then to Balliol College in the middle of the street before crossing the High Street in 1910 to take up his life’s work as a mathematics Student and tutor at Christ Church college. He was an Oxford man through and through. He was, by inheritance, one of the city’s freemen, the cause of which became one of the chief interests of his life. He once said that if ever a road was built through Port Meadow he would emigrate. Theo was, by all accounts, an excellent tutor. A large proportion of his pupils achieved the highest honours. Einstein became a friend whilst at Oxford. The slow and the dull were allegedly terrified of his mental agility. He was one of the “purest” of mathematicians. He claimed not to understand applied maths. Differential equations and theory of numbers were his two main subjects. His “Differential Calculus” was published by the Oxford University Press in 1935. His name is immortalised in the Birchnall-Chaundy Curve. During the Second World War he spent a short time at Bletchley Park with other mathematicians helping to decipher the German Enigma codes. As senior Don at Christ Church, he had the honour of welcoming President Truman to the college and made the after-dinner speech for him.
