Wallace Manheimer

Wallace Manheimer was born in New York City and was educated in the New York City public schools. His high school sent six graduating students (including him) to MIT.At MIT, he majored in physics and got both an S.B. and a Ph.D. from MIT. Shortly after receiving his Ph.D., he came to The Naval Research Lab (NRL) in Washington DC and began what became a more than 50-year career here, both as a civil servant and as a contractor scientific consultant. He is very proud that he was able to spend that much time with a single employer and believes that NRL has been, and hopefully will remain, a tremendous asset to the Navy, the country, and the world. At NRL he was in the Plasma Physics division and spent about half his time on fusion and the other half on various problems in national defense. He has authored or co-authored about 150 reviewed scientific papers in these areas.
