Abstract
John R. Whinnery was born on July 26, 1916 in Read, Colo. He received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of California in 1937, and immediately went to work for the General Electric Company in Schenectady, N.Y. At the General Electric Company, Mr. Whinnery entered the three-year Advanced Engineering Program, and following that, supervised the high-frequency part of that program for two years. He then worked in the Electronics Laboratory and the Research Laboratory on problems in velocity-modulation tubes, traveling-wave tubes, and disk-seal triodes. In 1945-1946 he was also part-time lecturer in Union College.
