[edit] His biography

I just found one short biography dating back to 1947 in Proceedings of I.R.E see [1]

I quote it here:

John R. Ragazzini was born in 1912 and received the degrees of B.S. and E.E. at the City College of New York in 1932 and 1933. He then received the degrees of A.M. and Ph.D. at Columbia University in 1939 and 1941. After a brief association with one of the City Departments he became an instructor in the School of Technology at the City College, -and in 1941 joined the faculty of the School of Engineering of Columbia University. During the war he was in charge of two contracts with the Office of Sciqntific Research and Development, one of which involved electronic simulators and computers. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, and Tau Beta Pi, and is an associate member of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers.
