Clinton B. Ford, born in 1913, graduated from the University of Michigan and was a Navy veteran of the Second World War.
Ford was widely known and admired not only for his own indefatigable work on variable stars, but also for his generous support of others' efforts in astronomy, music and other fields.
On Ford's death in 1992, the AIP Center for History of Physics received a gift of $200,000 from his estate, and used it to establish a Clinton B. Ford Endowment.
