          6. Saunders Mac Lane

          American mathematician (–)

          Saunders Mac Lane (August 4, – April 14, ), born Leslie Saunders MacLane, was an American mathematician who co-founded category theory with Samuel Eilenberg.

          Early life and education

          Mac Lane was born in Norwich, Connecticut, near where his family lived in Taftville.[4] He was christened "Leslie Saunders MacLane", but "Leslie" fell into disuse because his parents, Donald MacLane and Winifred Saunders, came to dislike it.

          He began inserting a space into his surname because his first wife found it difficult to type the name without a space.[5] He was the eldest of three brothers; one of his brothers, Gerald MacLane, also became a mathematics professor at Rice University and Purdue University.

          Another sister died as a baby. His father and grandfather were both ministers; his grandfather had been a Presbyterian, but was kicked out of the church for believing in evolution, and his father was a Congregationalist
