Oswald Garrison "Mike" Villard, Jr. (September 17, 1916 – January 7, 2004) was a prominent professor of electrical engineering at Stanford University. ==Early life and education== Villard was born in Dobbs Ferry, New York, to a distinguished family. He was great-grandson of William Lloyd Garrison, the famed abolitionist, and the grandson of Henry Villard, owner of the New York Evening Post and The Nation, who financed the work of Thomas Edison (by coincidence, Villard, Jr's academic advisor was Terman, whose advisor was Bush, whose advisor was Kennelly, who worked for Edison). His father was Oswald Garrison Villard, Sr., owner of Post and The Nation, a prominent Pacifist and civil rights activist.〔 He became interested in electricity after he was given "Harper's Electricity Book for Boys"; when he was 12, the family chauffeur gave him a radio assembled from a kit.〔 He initially attended Buckley School in New York City, and later went to The Hotchkiss School in Lakeville, Connecticut.〔 Villard received his bachelor's degree in English literature from Yale University in 1938,〔 and entered Stanford as a graduate student in electrical engineering. After World War II interrupted, he returned to Stanford in 1947 and received his doctorate in 1949.〔
