    James R. Leger received a B.S. degree in Applied Physics from the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, in 1974, and a PhD degree in Electrical Engineering (Applied Physics) from the University of California, San Diego, in 1980. He worked for the 3M Company until 1984, when he joined the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Laboratory, Lexington, as a Research Staff member. In 1991, he joined the faculty at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, where he is currently the Cymer Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Taylor Distinguished Professor. His principal research interests include laser design, applications of diffraction and advanced imaging systems. Dr. Leger received the Joseph Fraunhofer Award and the Robert M. Burley Prize from the Optical Society of America for advances in optical engineering in 1998. He is a fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA), the International Society for Optical Engineers (SPIE), and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
