Personal life

[edit]

Majda was married to Gerta Keller, the famed anti-impact-killed-the-dinosaurs geologist, some time in the 1970s, and their marriage lasted until his death. See [1] and [2].

In addition, he had two younger brothers, twins. (As mentioned by name and career in the notices PDF cited above.) One of them, George, was a professor of mathematics at OSU until his death in 2004. George co-authored two papers with his brother Andrew. The other twin, John, had majored in mathematics as an undergraduate, but switched to medicine and became an oncologist. See [3], but I know of no RS that identifies this John as Andrew's brother. (For the record, all three were born in East Chicago, Indiana, and all three majored in math at Purdue as undergraduates.) 128.91.40.237 (talk) 16:47, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
