W. Lowell Morgan (M’97) received the B.S.E. degree in physics and chemical engineering with a minor in english from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA, in 1969, and the Ph.D. degree in physics from the University of Windsor, Windsor, ON, Canada, in 1976. He performed post-doctoral research on metal vapor-excimer plasmas with the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, USA. He returned as a Visiting Fellow and the Acting Director of the Atomic and Molecular Data Center in 1987 and 1989. He was a Staff Physicist with the Theoretical Atomic and Molecular Physics Group, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, CA, USA, where he was involved in the laser and weapons programs, and a Lecturer with the University of California at Davis, Davis, CA, USA, from 1979 to 1987.
