John von Neumann (1903-1957) was a Hungarian born mathematician who immigrated to the United States when Hitler rose to power. He was a child prodigy who contributed a broad range of fields, include [[quantum mechanics]] [[game theory]] and [[computer science]]. He is credited with doing early work on the modern digital computer and the application of operator theory to quantum mechanics. He was a member of the Manhattan Project who later worked with [[Edward Teller]] and [[Stanislaw Ulam]] to develop the steps for thermonuclear reactions necessary to build the hydrogen bomb.
