    Extractions: G EORGE DAVID BIRKHOFF WAS born at Overisel, Michigan, on the twenty-first of March, 1884. His ancestry was Dutch on both sides. His father, David Birkhoff, came from Holland in 1870, and during George David's growing years was a physician in Chicago. Birkhoff studied at the Lewis Institute, Chicago, from 1896 to 1902, and at the University of Chicago for a year. After this he went to Harvard, where he received the Bachelor's degree in 1905. Beginning in the year 1900 there appeared in the problem department of the American Mathematical Monthly , edited by B. F. Finkel, a series of notes, solutions, and problems by H. S. Vandiver, of Bala, Pennsylvania. In 1901 Birkhoff, who had doubtless found the monthly in the old John Crerar Library, began exchanging letters about various questions in the theory of numbers with Vandiver, who was then nineteen years old. This correspondence resulted in the publication in 1904 of their joint paper in the Annals of Mathematics "On the integral devisors of a n b n ." So far as I know this was Birkhoff's only publication in the theory of numbers, but Vandiver has told me that Birkhoff was in possession in those days of at least one number-theoretical theorem which is now counted among the notable contributions of a distinguished mathematician in another part of the world. In later life Birkhoff often showed an interest in number theory, but seems never to have taken the deep plunge which would have been necessary in order to bring up new results of the sort that would have satisfied him. It was not until his Princeton period that he met Vandiver personally.

54. Clifford Truesdell - Birkhoff Prize
    The george David birkhoff Prize in Applied Mathematics. This prize wasestablished in 1967 in honor of Professor george David birkhoff.  
    http://medg.lcs.mit.edu/doyle/gallery/truesdell/birkhoff.html
    
    Extractions: in Applied Mathematics This prize was established in 1967 in honor of Professor George David Birkhoff . The initial endowment of $2,066 was contributed by the Birkhoff family and there have been subsequent additions by others. It is normally awarded every five years, beginning in 1968, for an outstanding contribution to ``applied mathematics in the highest and broadest sense.'' The award is made jointly by the American Mathematical Society and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics . The recipient must be a member of one of these societies and a resident of the United States, Canada, or Mexico. The sixth award was given in 1978 to Clifford A. Truesdell for his outstanding contributions to our understanding of the subjects of rational mechanics and nonlinear materials, for his efforts to give precise mathematical formulation to these classical subjects, for his many contributions to applied mathematics in the fields of acoustic theory, kinetic theory, and nonlinear elastic theory, and the thermodynamics of mixtures, and for his major work in the history of mechanics.
