The American Institute of Physics has named Alan Friedman, director of the New York Hall of Science, as the winner of its 2004 Andrew W. Gemant Award.
AIP is honoring Friedman for his “efforts to make science understandable to a large audience and for his vision and leadership within the museum community.” According to the citation, his “understanding and love of physics inform his creative work and have insured that physics has become more deeply embedded into human culture.” The institute also noted that his work has “earned him the reputation of being one of the most knowledgeable and thoughtful practitioners of informal science education.”
