==Life and career==
Grimson was born in 1953 in Estevan, Saskatchewan where his father, William, was the principal of Estevan Collegiate Institute, the local high school, and his mother an eminent musician and teacher of piano performance and music theory. The family later moved to Regina where he attended the University of Regina, graduating in 1975 with a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics and physics.〔''Estevan Mercury'' (14 October 2011). ("Q & A with MIT's chancellor" ).〕〔University of Regina Alumni Association, Alumni Crowning Achievement Awards (Dr. Eric Grimson, BSc'75 (High Honours) )〕 In 1980, he received his PhD in mathematics from MIT. His doctoral dissertation, ''Computing shape using a theory of human stereo vision'', was on computer vision, a field which would become the focus of his research career. An expanded version of the dissertation was published by MIT Press in 1981 as ''From Images To Surfaces: A Computational Study of the Human Early Vision System'', which was endorsed by Tomaso Poggio and Noam Chomsky.〔''IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence'' (July 1984).

After completing his PhD, Grimson worked as research scientist the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and joined the university's faculty in 1984. He eventually rose to Bernard Gordon Professor of Medical Engineering and Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. In February 2011, he was appointed Chancellor of MIT, succeeding Phillip Clay, and took up his post the following month.〔MIT. (W. Eric L. Grimson, Chancellor ).
