== Biography ==
Ralph Wendell Burhoe was born on 21 June 1911, in Somerville, Massachusetts. He attended Harvard University from 1928 to 1932 as a student of meteorology and climatology, though never completing his degree. He then entered Andover Newton Theological School.〔(''Theology in a Global Context: The Last Two Hundred Years'' ), Hans Schwarz, Wm. B. Eerdmans, 2005, ISBN 0-8028-2986-4, ISBN 978-0-8028-2986-3, 597 pages, p.561-562〕 Burhoe spent eighteen months in theological study at Andover. Instead of becoming a minister as he had planned, he returned to Harvard University as an employee of the Blue Hill Meteorological Observatory, finding some success as a scientist. He went on to become the first full-time executive director of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences starting in 1947.〔 His position at the AAAS brought him into close contact with such eminent scientists as the astronomer Harlow Shapley, the geologist Kirtley Mather, and the biologist George Wald. While there, he was one of the founders of the Institute on Religion in an Age of Science.〔 In 1965, Burhoe joined the faculty at the Meadville Lombard Theological School, the Unitarian Universalist seminary in Hyde Park, Chicago. There he facilitated the founding of ''Zygon: Journal of Religion and Science'' and the Center for Advanced Study in Religion and Science (CASIRAS). After retiring from Meadville in 1974 he was affiliated with the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, where in 1988 he founded the Chicago Center for Religion and Science.〔(Remembering Ralph Burhoe )〕 His ashes are interred in the crypt at First Unitarian Church of Chicago where he was a member.
