Thursday's edition of the national newspaper, Investor's Business Daily, includes an article on the life of Pittsburgh astronomer and telescope-maker John A. Brashear.

Retired Allegheny Observatory Director George Gatewood and I were quoted in this story, which actually first ran in the newspaper on 2006 October 18. Both days, the article ran on the "Leaders and Success" page (page A3).

Here is the link to the reprinted article:
