Nina Karlovna Bari
1901-1961
Born of Russian parents in Moscow in 1901, Bari showed an early aptitude in mathematics. This led to an invitation to join the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Moscow State University in 1918. While teaching, she worked for her doctorate on the theory of trigonometrical series and received her Ph.D. in 1926.
She then became a research assistant at the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics in Moscow. Following two years of study in Paris, she returned to a full professorship at Moscow State University. Among her numerous papers and publications were two textbooks: Higher Algebra (1932) and The Theory of Series (1936). She also translated Lebesgue's famous book on integration into Russian. Bari died in Moscow in 1961.
