About Martin Gardner’s Mathematical Games-Hexaflexagons AND OTHER MATHEMATICAL DIVERSIONS

<p>On October 21, Martin Gardner celebrated his ninetieth birthday. For 25 of his 90 years,</p><p>Gardner wrote the monthly “Mathematical Games” column for Scientific American. His</p><p>columns have inspired thousands of readers to learn more about the mathematics that he</p><p>loved to explore and explain. Among his column correspondents were several distinguished</p><p>mathematicians and scientists, including John Horton Conway, Persi Diaconis, Ron</p><p>Graham, Douglas Hofstadter, Richard Guy, Don Knuth, Sol Golomb, and Roger Penrose.</p><p>Gardner’s columns have earned him a place of honor in the mathematical community,</p><p>which has given him many awards. But he has always declined invitations to accept</p><p>awards in person, on the grounds that he is not a mathematician. “I’m strictly a journal-</p><p>ist,” he insists. “I just write about what other people are doing in the field.” His modesty</p><p>is admirable, but we insist that he is far more than a journalist.</p><p>In addition to his massive contributions to mathematics, Gardner has written about</p><p>magic, philosophy, literature, and pseudoscience. Over his first ninety years, he has pro-</p><p>duced more than 60 books, most still in print; many have been bestsellers. His Annotated</p><p>Alice has sold over a million copies, and the 15 volumes collecting his “Mathematical</p><p>Games ” columns have gone through several printings. All 15 volumes have been digi-</p><p>tized and are on this CD.</p><p>In his ninetieth year, he has returned to Oklahoma, where he was born. He is in good</p><p>health and full of energy. We look forward to more from him as he begins his second 90</p><p>years. What follows is a portion of an interview done at Gardner’s home in</p><p>Hendersonville, NC in the fall of 1990 and spring of 1991</p>
