Less than six weeks after school started, he was hired to become a member of the faculty. He taught at Princeton University from 1949 until 1970 and then taught at New York University from 1971 until his retirement in 2014.

He died on May 4, 2017 at the age of 95. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos
