Prof. Dr. W.J. "Jim" Choyke - still going strong at 100. The man has probably forgotten more about Silicon Carbide than most researchers will ever know. (That's a lie, of course -- he's remembers damn near everything even at his age.)
He worked with my grandfather at Westinghouse R&D, and after Westinghouse, he moved on to Pitt Physics in the 1980's, where he continued to maintain a research lab well into his nineties.
I am proud to continue to support Dr. Choyke in all of his continuing endeavours, which include writing his memoirs -- and oh man, he's got some stories. We are planning a banquet in honor of his 100th birthday next month.
Sadly this is a Post-Gazette link, but I'm very glad that he's getting the recognition he deserves.
