Abstract
Scholars who have sought to demonstrate the complexity of scientific management as a philosophy, a movement, and a mode of thinking have only rarely discussed the scientific managers themselves1. Yet their lives offer important insights not only into a unique group of engineers, managers, and academics, but also into the competing tensions across American society in the first half of the twentieth century.
