Abstract:
|
When a demographer’s career was being threatened by her government for an analysis she did, Herb Spirer reached out to her and changed the course of events. The talk will discuss the relationship that resulted and how Herb Spirer as a statistician deeply devoted to intellectual freedom had a lasting impact.
