STANLEY H. SIMONSEN
Dr. Stanley H. Simonsen, Emeritus
Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry,
died in Austin on July 29, 1996, at age 77 from bone cancer.
He is survived by his wife, Kathleen Fuller Simonsen of Austin;
children, Karen Waddell and husband John; Eric Simonsen and
wife Nancy Knudson; Janet Zimmermann and husband James; Craig
Simonsen and wife Carol; and six grandchildren.
Dr. Simonsen was born August 25,
1918, in Missoula, Montana. He grew up and received his early
education in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area. He received
his undergraduate degree from the University of Northern Iowa
in 1940. After World War II, he was discharged from the U.S.
Army, where he had served as a medical technician. He then
entered graduate school at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign,
where he received a master's degree in chemistry and then completed
his doctorate in chemistry in 1949. He joined the faculty of
the Department of Chemistry at The University of Texas in 1949
and retired from active service in 1988.
During his long career, he taught
a wide variety of courses, mainly in analytical and general
chemistry, and served on supervising committees or as research
director for many master's, doctoral, and postdoctoral students.
The only change that occurred in Dr. Simonsen's busy schedule
upon his retirement was the disappearance of formal teaching.
He continued his research work almost to the end. His research,
conducted mainly in X-ray crystallography and structural chemistry,
resulted in the publication of many journal articles and numerous
presentations at meetings and conferences. He was a recipient
of one of the earliest research grants from the Robert A. Welch
Foundation of Houston, Texas, in 1956, and was continuously
funded as a principal investigator until his death.
The computational demands of his
chosen research area made Dr. Simonsen one of the earliest
computer users at the University, and he played a seminal role
in the establishment of computing as a research tool on this
campus. In 1952, he and his colleague Professor F. A. Matsen
obtained an IBM Card Programmed Computer at surplus from the
Magnesium Corporation. They then raised, from their own research
grants and other sources, the funds required not only to equip
a room in the chemistry building with air-conditioning, but
also to pay for the operation of the air conditioners and the
power for the computer. (The University administration was
not yet ready to support such a novel gadget as an electronic
computer.) Drs. Simonsen and Matsen not only used that computer
facility to great advantage in their own research programs,
but provided a few hours a day of its use to others. Prompted
in large part by the success of this initial use of computers
in scientific research, the University administration a few
years later established its first centrally-supported computational
facility, featuring the IBM 650. Always a lover of scientific
instrumentation, Dr. Simonsen also developed a computer-controlled
system for the collection of X-ray diffraction intensity data
in his laboratory long before the advent of commercial automated
diffractometers.
Throughout his career, Dr. Simonsen
was an active member of the American Crystallographic Association,
having joined in 1950. He served on various committees and
as organizing chairman for the national meeting of that association
in Austin in 1987. He was also a long time member of the American
Chemical Society and was active in the local section activities
of that organization. He served as a member of the editorial
board of the journal Heterocyclic Chemistry.
Dr. Simonsen is remembered by his
many friends as a kind, warm-hearted person, totally generous
with his time. He was especially helpful to younger faculty
members, spending many hours helping them order equipment and
materials, set up their laboratories, organize their courses,
and learn to deal with the intricacies of life at a major university.
He was influential, not only with his determined and vocal
support but especially with the accessibility of his X-ray
equipment, in establishing a state-of-the-art crystal structure
service laboratory in the Department. His teaching, whether
in the classroom or as supervisor of individual research, was
notable by his demanding commitment to excellence, both on
his part and that of his students, and by a high degree of
rigor, tempered with his characteristic clarity and thoroughness
and leavened with his sharp, though often dry, sense of humor.
His greatest interests were family, church, teaching and research,
and working with the youth and the adult leaders in the Boy
Scouts of America. He was Scoutmaster of Troop 46 in Austin
for eighteen years. Dr. Simonsen will be sorely missed by his
many friends, colleagues, and students, with whom he established
a warm personal relationship in addition to his professional
ties.
