Who We Are  
 

The founders of the Center for Mathematics and Culture are a highly diverse group of scholars and authors. Among us are historians, psycholgists, education specialists, writers of fiction and non-fiction, and, of course, mathematicians. All of us are brought together by a concern for the cultural marginalization of mathematics, and a desire to see the field take its rightful place in the mainstream of the modern world.

Our founding advisory board includes both at-large members and a core group working to establish the Center at UCLA:
