> Hello Doug Schuler,
> I am writing a biography of computer pioneer and peace activist Edmund C. Berkeley (1909-1988) and wonder if you knew him or know of him. Ed Berkeley was the editor and publisher of Computers and Automation in the 1950s through 1970s and was a founder of the ACM. In those capacities, he was very vocal and active about the social responsibilities of computer people. Did his work have any impact on your own activities with Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility?
