Dr. Grimes went on to pursue an additional postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Basel in Switzerland. After returning to the United States, he became a fellow of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, later becoming a staff physicist at the laboratory. He first became involved with Ohio University in 1978, serving as a visiting professor for one year, and in 1985, he returned to the school as a permanent member of the faculty. For the next 22 years, Dr. Grimes taught physics courses in addition to serving as director of the school’s Edwards Accelerator Lab and continued to research. In 2007, he stepped down from active work with the university and remains a distinguished professor emeritus of physics and astronomy at the university. Dr. Grimes has been published extensively, contributing numerous articles to professional journals. As an expert in the field of nuclear physics, he edited several key texts, including “Neutron-Nucleus Collisions,” and “Moment Methods.” In recognition of his contributions to the specialty, the American Physical Society awarded him with the title Distinguished Professor in 2001 and Outstanding Referee in 2008. Reflecting on his career, Dr. Grimes is grateful for the guidance he received from his thesis advisor, Heinz Barschall, his supervisor at Livermore, New York, John Anderson, and his parents. He feels he has yet to fully answer all the questions he has posed with his work, and he remains motivated to further uncover the mysteries in his field. In his personal time, Dr. Grimes enjoys reading, photography, and hiking with his son. Since childhood, Dr. Steven M. Grimes has been passionate about physics, engineering, and learning more about the world. He first became interested in the subject while helping his father design their family home and enjoyed studying each phase of the process in depth. He earned a Bachelor of Science from Stanford University in STEVEN M. GRIMES, PHD PROFESSOR EMERITUS, RESEARCHER Ohio University Athens, OH
