I did a few of these puzzles
as my donation to an animal welfare fundraiser. They were fun and I’d
like to do some again one day!

About James Bryant Conant
James
Bryant Conant, the American chemist and educator, is known both for his
role in the Manhattan Project — which developed the first nuclear
weapons — and for his innovative tenure as president of Harvard
University. Harvard had been a finishing school for the rich; Conant
turned it into a world-class research university and created aptitude
tests to choose students by ability. These tests became the basis for
the SAT. He was born in Massachusetts in 1893 and died in New Hampshire
in 1978.
