	James Franck
		Franck studied at the universities of Heidelberg and Berlin, received his doctorate from the latter in 1906, and served in the German army during World War I. He and Hertz performed their prizewinning work at the University of Berlin in 1912-14.
		Franck was appointed professor of physics at the University of Gottingen in 1920.
		Arriving in the United States in 1935, Franck was appointed professor at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, and in 1938 became professor of physical chemistry at the University of Chicago.

	James Franck - Biography
		It was in Göttingen that Franck revealed himself as a highly gifted tutor, gathering around him and inspiring a circle of students and collaborators (among them: Blackett, Condon, Kopfermann, Kroebel, Maier-Leibnitz, Oppenheimer, and Rabinovich, to mention some of them), who in later years were to be renowned in their own fields.
		Franck's other investigations, many of which were carried out with collaborators and students, were also dedicated to problems of atomic physics - those on the exchange of energy of excited atoms (impacts of the second type, photochemical researches), and optical problems connected with elementary processes during chemical reactions.
		In 1964, Professor Franck was elected as a Foreign Member of the Royal Society, London, for his contribution to the understanding of exchanges of energy in electron collisions, to the interpretation of molecular spectra, and to problems of photosynthesis.

	James Franck
		Franck worked in an era when the intellectual foundations of science were being transformed, its secure Newtonian base weakend by the challenges of relativity.
		While Franck might have yearned for the comparatively quiet decades of the late nineteenth century, his experience under Hitler and the fate of many friends and colleagues who remained in Germany convinced him that the evil Hitler both represented and embodied could not be tolerated.
		Franck recognized the new set of perils and argued that the only hope for a stable future was for a complete exchange of scientific data among nations.
