There is a great page on Proteopedia written by Eric Martz, which has links to the ASBMB piece and 3 other retrospectives. I have made extensive additions to the Wikipedia page on Fred. Is there a photo of him that would be available (open license) to add to the Wikipedia page? If so, please email it to me at dcrjsr@gmail.com.
