ABSTRACT
I have had the great personal privilege of being Ralph Tyler's friend since 1957, when my husband Sidney Siegel was a Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences. Ralph was the Director. He had been with the new Center since its planning year in 1953 and had greeted the first class of Fellows at the new building on the Stanford campus in 1954. My part-time teaching at Stanford during my husband's year at the Center left me plenty of time to enjoy the Center and to make friends among the Fellows and staff and their families.
