Kenneth Kellermann

Kenneth Irwin Kellermann (born July 1, 1937)^[1] is an American astronomer at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.^[2][3] He is best known for his work on quasars. He won the Helen B. Warner Prize for Astronomy of the American Astronomical Society in 1971,^[4] and the Bruce Medal of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific in 2014.

Kellerman was a member of the National Academy of Sciences,^[5] the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,^[6] and the American Philosophical Society.^[7]

Kellermann was born in New York City to Alexander Kellermann and Rae Kellermann (née Goodstein). His paternal grandparents emigrated from Hungary and his maternal grandparents from Romania.^[8][9][10]
