of Washington. He was born in 1914 and received a B.S. (1935) and a Ph.D.
(1939) from the University of California at Berkeley. In 1939 Lingafelter
joined the faculty of the University of Washington, where his research
concentrated on the use of x-ray crystallography to study the structure of
inorganic metal complexes. He was also interested in chemical education and was
one of the earliest faculty members to participate in the university's
televised course program. Lingafelter was acting chair of the Department of
Chemistry 1976-1978, and he retired in 1983.
