  Technical American Publications That Supported the Individualistic Hypothesis 1947–1959 Those written by John Curtis or his students are preceded with an asterisk. Citations are given in chronological order.
  Some of the most senior interviewees are part of the third generation of American plant ecologists, who began or finished graduate training in the 1930s (Daniel Axelrod, Dwight Billings, Pierre Dansereau, Rexford Dau-benmire, Frank Egler, Harold Heady, Cornelius Muller, Eugene Odum, Frank Pitelka, John Reed). Most of the others received their Ph.D.'s in the 1940s and 1950s (Robert Burgess, Herbert Bormann, John Cantlon, Grant Cottam, Frank Golley, Hugh Iltis, Jean Langenheim, Jack Major, Robert McIntosh, Harold Mooney, Jerry Olsen, George Salt, Arnold Schultz). Several others, who completed their training in the 1960s, were interviewed because they represent important modern areas of plant ecology research or because they were close to older ecologists (Jerry Franklin, Peter Marks, Robert Peet, Paul Risser, John Sawyer). Also included are the widows of Murray Buell (Helen Buell) and Robert Whittaker (Linda Olsvig-Whittaker) and five respondents from other countries (David Goodall from Australia, Peter Greig-Smith from Great Britain, Makoto Numata from Japan, and Pierre Dansereau and Stanley Rowe from Canada).
  They all were students of, or interacted with, many ecologists who dominated the first half of the this century, men such as Murray Buell, Stanley Cain, Ralph Chaney, Frederic Clements, William Cooper, Henry Cowles, John Curtis, Henry Gleason, Hans Jenny, Herbert Mason, Charles Olmsted, Henry Oosting, Paul Sears, Victor Shelford, Arthur Tansley, Arthur Vestal, and John Weaver.
  The questions asked and the roster of interviewees were largely compiled with the assistance of William Cronon, environmental historian at the University of Wisconsin and editor of this volume; Robert McIntosh, emeritus plant ecologist and ecological historian at Notre Dame University; John Cantlon, emeritus plant ecologist and provost at Michigan State University; and Dwight Billings, emeritus plant ecologist at Duke University. The latter two are past presidents of the Ecological Society of America.
  I extend my deep gratitude and sincere appreciation to all those who made the considerable effort to participate. Copies of this manuscript were sent to all for review, and seven responded with written critiques, which further improved this essay. I regret any errors of fact or interpretation that might remain.
