Career

While working at the General Electric Research Laboratory, in 1953 Rosen co-authored one of the first textbooks on transistor circuits.[2] In 1956, Rosen received a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Syracuse University (with a minor in solid state physics).[3]

In 1957, Rosen joined the

Stanford Research Institute, where he did much of his artificial intelligence work.[1]

In 1959, Rosen co-founded Ridge Vineyards with SRI colleagues Hewitt Crane and David Bennion. Under their ownership, Ridge would go on to place fifth in the Judgment of Paris wine tasting.[4]
