Richard Stanley is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Algebraic and enumerative combinatorics
Born in Manhattan, Stanley became a professor at MIT and one of the founders of modern algebraic and enumerative combinatorics, connecting problems of counting to algebra, geometry and topology, most notably in his two-volume work 'Enumerative Combinatorics.' His family background is consistent with Jewish heritage, and he is listed among Jewish mathematicians.
