== Biography ==
The son of Harvard lawyer Wilson Marcy Powell, Sr. and Elsie Knapp, Wilson was born in Litchfield, Connecticut.〔(Wilson Marcy Powell, Physics: Berkeley, University of California )〕 He matriculated into Harvard College in 1922 and graduated in 1926. During his undergraduate years, Powell went on two solar eclipse expeditions sponsored by Swarthmore College.〔(Miller, J.A.; Marriott, R.W. (March 1925), Observations of the Total Solar Eclipse of September 10, 1923, by the Sproul Observatory, The Astrophysical Journal, Vol. LXI, No. 2. )〕 He participated in his final eclipse expedition to the Arctic Circle nearly 50 years later.
At the behest of his father, Powell entered Harvard Law School in 1926. However, he had always known that he wanted to do physics and was unable to focus on his law studies. His mother, Elsie persuaded her husband to allow their son to withdraw from the law school after a year and to begin graduate work in physics at Harvard. Powell completed a Ph.D. in Physics in 1933 under Theodore Lyman.
