Abel Prize-winning mathematician Karen Uhlenbeck reflects on her life and development as a mathematician in this unusually open, fascinating account (ht @EricaKlarreich): https://web.ma.utexas.edu/users/uhlen/vita/pers.html …
Replying to @stevenstrogatz @EricaKlarreich
Thank you for pointing out this excellent essay. I remember Professor Uhlenbeck well from the time, during the early and mid-eighties, when we were both at the University of Chicago. She expresses herself here just as she did then: directly, sincerely, and unpretentiously.
