Harold Kuhn, Princeton mathematician who advanced game theory, dies at 88
I took linear algebra from Prof. Tucker and game theory from Prof. Kuhn in my junior year. The following year, Prof. Kuhn taught linear algebra, and I worked for him as a grader.

I never met him, but his reputation was legendary and mysterious.
BTW, Dr. Nash was just awarded the Abel Prize in mathematics. (He got the Nobel Prize in economics in 1994 for other research.)
