Joyce Hemlow, Professor of English at McGill University, taught in rural schools in Nova Scotia before coming to Queen's for her B.A. and M.A. Awarded the Marty Memorial Travelling Fellowship, she went to Radcliffe for her doctorate. She had access to the Burney papers in the Berg Collection in New York, and on a Guggenheim Fellowship in England (1951) tracked down some thousands of additional Burney papers hitherto unknown and now lodged in the British Museum. Her "History of Fanny Burney" (1958) at once received critical acclaim, and earned for her the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for biography in England as well as the Governor-General's Medal in Canada. Seldom has the dedication of painstaking scholarship yielded such fruits in literary discovery or found more felicitous expression in distinguished biography. Later she compiled "A Catalogue of the Burney Family Correspondence 1749-1878" (New York, 1971), and she edited "The Letters and Journals of Fanny Burney" 12 volumes (Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1872-1984), and "Selected Letters & Journals of Fanny Burney" (Oxford, 1986). Her other writings include five articles on the Hemlow family in Sherbrooke and Liscomb, N.S., published in the "Nova Scotia Historical Review" from 1990 to 1998.

G.G.L. Henderson, through his leadership in the application of the earth sciences to the discovery and development of hydrocarbon and mineral resources, has become widely recognized as one of Canada's outstanding earth scientists. His structural studies and tectonic syntheses of the Rocky Mountains, although directed primarily toward exploration for hydrocarbons, have resulted in fundamental scientific contributions. As Structural Specialist, Chief Geologist, Vice-President (Exploration), and Director of a major oil company, he has been eminently successful in organizing, directing and participating in exploration programs which led to the discovery of important new oil and gas fields in Alberta and British Columbia and a major sedimentary iron deposit in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. The esteem which he is held for his many important contributions to the development and coordination of research programs is apparent from his appointment to the Solid Earth Sciences Study Group of the Sceince Secretariat and as President of the Canadian Geological Foundation.

Monsieur Jacques Henripin a été à l'origine du développement de la démographie au Québec, tant dans l'enseignement universitaire, que dans ses applications pratiques. Ses nombreuses activités lui donnent un rayonnement qui dépasse de beaucoup son rôle de chercheur scientifique. Outre sa licence en sciences sociales, économiques et politiques (Université de Montréal 1951) et un doctorat en science économique de l'Université de Paris (1953), il a fait un stage de deux ans à l'Institut national d'études démographiques de Paris, un stage au London School of Economics (1952) et au Social Science Research Council, Université de Chicago (1956). Depuis lors, il a occupé de nombreux postes académiques et non académiques, publié des livres et des brochures, des articles scientifiques dans divers périodiques et fait de nombreux travaux de vulgarisation.

Long Citation Clyde Hertzman is one of the world's leading health researchers. His major focus is to understand how societal and biological factors converge to determine the health of populations. With input from molecular, organismic, and population based studies, Hertzman has synthesized a powerful and coherent set of viewpoints and principles which lead to concrete strategies for improving the lot of our aging population, assessing the health risks of environmental factors, and identifying optimum life-course trajectories based on alterations in early development. His work has been extremely influential, not only within the research community, but also at a policy level both nationally and internationally.
