Professor Gordon M. Harris, Chairman
Department of Chemistry
State University of New York
Buffalo 14, New York
Dear Professor Harris:
I am writing in support of Professor Kurt Mislow - I understand from your letter that you are considering the possibility of giving him a senior staff appointment.
I knew Mislow well when he was a graduate student - much of his work was done under my supervision. He is a very able chemist, with excellent training in organic chemistry and with a good understanding of physical chemistry, physics, and some aspects of biology.
In his work he has shown unusual originality and a great amount of industry. I judge that he is a good teacher, although I have not had much opportunity to get information about his teaching.
So far as I am aware, his character is unimpeachable. He is a pleasant man, with a good personality.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:lh
