Tom Mike Apostol is an American analytic number theorist and professor at the California Institute of Technology. Apostol was born in Helper, Utah, on August 20, 1923. His parents, Emmanouil Apostolopoulos and Efrosini Papathanasopoulos, originated from Greece. Mr. Apostolopoulos's name was shortened to Mike Apostol when he obtained his United States citizenship, and Tom Apostol inherited this Americanized surname.〔 Apostol received his Bachelor of Science in chemical engineering in 1944, Master's degree in mathematics from the University of Washington in 1946, and a PhD in mathematics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1948. Apostol has since been a faculty member at UC Berkeley, MIT, and Caltech. He is the author of several influential graduate and undergraduate level textbooks. Apostol is the creator and project director for Project MATHEMATICS! producing videos which explore basic topics in high school mathematics. He has helped popularize the visual calculus devised by Mamikon Mnatsakanian with whom he has also written a number of papers, many of which appeared in the ''American Mathematical Monthly''. Apostol also provided academic content for an acclaimed video lecture series on introductory physics, ''The Mechanical Universe''. In 2001, Apostol was elected in the Academy of Athens.〔(«Professor Elected to Greek Academy» ), Caltech Media Relations.〕 He received a Lester R. Ford Award in 2005, in 2008, and in 2010. In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.〔(List of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society ), retrieved 2012-11-03.〕 ==Bibliography== * ''Mathematical Analysis: A modern approach to advanced calculus'', (1957) Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-00288-4 * ''Introduction to Analytic Number Theory'', (1976) Springer-Verlag, New York.
