Biography

Marvin Goldstein is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — NASA's chief aeroacoustician; Otto Laporte Award (1997)

How & why

Marvin E. Goldstein is an American applied mathematician and Chief Scientist emeritus at NASA's Glenn Research Center whose theoretical work on aeroacoustics and rapid distortion theory advanced the understanding and prediction of jet noise; his textbook 'Aeroacoustics' became a standard reference, and he received the American Physical Society's Otto Laporte Award in 1997. His scientific record is well documented, but published biographies do not state a religious or ethnic identity, so no Jewish identity is asserted here.
