Abstract:

Jack Good was an amazing man with a sweeping array of contributions to statistics and science over 60 plus years. My interactions with him began in the 1960s and continued until shortly before his death, In this presentation I review some of these interactions and the manner in which they touched upon his writings and contributions.
