John Wilder Tukey "An appropriate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than an exact answer to an approximate problem." John Tukey As a chemist-turned-topologist-turned statistician, John Wilder Tukey played a key role in the development and study of statistics in the mid 1900's. The field of statistics has benefited tremendously from his contributions. J. W. Tukey was born on July 16, 1915, in New Bedford, Massachusetts. He was the only child of Ralph H. and Adah M. (Tasker) Tukey. His parents recognized the great potential in their son at a very early age and decided to school him at home. Home schooling was convenient for Tukey since both of his parents were teachers. Tukey's formal education did not begin until he entered Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, to study mathematics and chemistry. Tukey complete his studies at Brown University when he graduated with a Master's degree in chemistry. He then went on to study for a doctorate in mathematics at Princeton University in 1937. Tukey received his doctorate in 1939 for the dissertation Denumerability in topology . This impressive thesis was then published in 1940 as Convergence and Uniformity in topology . It was the second book in the Annals of Mathematics Studies of the Princeton University Press. However, this was not Tukey's first publication. Even prior to obtaining his doctorate, he wrote three papers that had been published.

This was possible since his parents were themselves teachers. His formal education began only when he entered Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island to study mathematics and chemistry. After being awarded his Master's Degree in chemistry from Brown University, Tukey went to Princeton University in 1937 to study for his doctorate in mathematics. He received his doctorate in 1939 for a dissertation Denumerability in topology which was published in 1940 as Convergence and uniformity in topology . He had already had three papers published before his doctorate was awarded and, in after graduating he was appointed as an instructor at Princeton. External events were to play a major role in the direction of Tukey's career since he joined the Fire Control Research office to contribute towards the war effort. The work here involved statistics and Tukey quickly found the work very much to his liking. There were other statisticians in Princeton, also contributing towards the war effort, in particular
