| Summary, etc. | Edmund Callis Berkeley was born on March 20, 1909 in New York City. From 1918- 1923, he attended St. Bernard's School for Boys at 111 East 60th Street, where he learned about the sciences, the arts, creativity, and character. During that time, Berkeley recalled, "The first ambition I ever had was to paint black fences orange. In New York in the East Sixties when I was a child being taken to the park, I used to see every now and then men in white suits transforming dirty iron fences into radiant red-orange glory." Berkeley never lost this ambition to transform "what is" into "what could be." Ultimately, Berkeley's story is one of electronic computer development and politics. Ever the inventor, Berkeley transformed his visions of the future into intelligent machines to help people make good decisions. Ever the teacher, Berkeley transformed his trials into parables to help people tell truth from falsehood. With the perspective of time, we can follow his story somewhere in the grey areas between true and false. |
