Alston Householder spent his childhood in Alabama where his family had moved shortly after he was born. After attending school, he entered Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois where he studied philosophy, receiving his BA in 1925. He then went to Cornell University in Ithaca, New York where he continued his study of philosophy, receiving his MA in 1927. Householder then taught mathematics in a number of different places and began to work for his doctorate in mathematics. He was awarded a Ph.D. by the University of Chicago in 1947 for a thesis on the calculus of variations . However his interests were moving towards applications of mathematics, particularly applications of mathematics to biology. From 1947 Householder spent eight years working on mathematical biology as a member of the Committee for Mathematical Biology at the University of Chicago. John Hearon, after retiring from the National Institutes of Health, wrote of Householder's work over this period:- Hypothesis, conjecture and tentative theory flew in all directions and there was a period of great ferment. In the midst of this, to every area to which he addressed himself Householder brought organisation and systemisation. He was then, and for some years to come, the only one of the group formally trained as a mathematician. It showed. He brought to every problem he undertook unification, generality of method and, in the end, simplicity.

    The Alston S. Householder
    Postdoctoral Fellowship in Scientific Computing
    Background
    The Alston S. Householder Postdoctoral Fellowship in Scientific Computing honors Dr. Alston S. Householder , founding Director of the Mathematics Division (now Computer Science and Mathematics Division ) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory , and recognizes his seminal research contributions to the fields of numerical analysis and scientific computing. Each Householder Fellowship is a one-year appointment and is potentially renewable for a second year. It provides access to state-of-the-art computational facilities (high-performance workstations and parallel architectures), and collaborative research opportunities in active research programs in advanced scientific computing and computational sciences. The purpose of the Householder Fellowship is to promote innovative research in scientific computing on advanced computer architectures and to facilitate technology transfer from the laboratory research environment to industry and academia through advanced training of new computational scientists.

He was 89 years old. Those of us who attended the Householder meeting at Lake Arrowhead were fortunate to see him before he passed away. Householder made many contributions to linear algebra and numerical analysis. Many techniques that we use so easily were originated by him. But beyond his technical skill, he was a kind and gentle soul. He was modest and being in his presence was uplifting. He never denigrated others. Letters of condolence can be sent to his widow, Heidi Householder, 6235 Tapia drive, Malibu, CA 90265 or his son, Dr. John Householder, 743 North A Street, Oxnard, CA 93030. If you prefer, send an e-mail to me and I will send copies to Heidi and John. ( There is a surviving daughter but I do not know her address; she lives in Britain). We will organize a memorial fund at a later date. Gene From: Mustafa Pinar
