Education and career
Auslander received his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1955 under Shiing-Shen Chern. He was a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1955-57 and again in 1971-72.[2] After holding a variety of faculty positions at US universities, in 1965 Auslander joined the faculty at
Personal life
