Oral History Interview of Robin "Tuck" Stebbins, July 6, 2021 (Video Pt. 1)
Robin “Tuck” Stebbins discusses his involvement in the Poor Man mine located west of Boulder, CO. Dr. Stebbins was a graduate student at the Joint Institute of Laboratory Astrophysics from 1970 to 1973. He then worked at the National Solar Observatory and in the Physics Department at the University of Colorado/Boulder. In 2001 he became a Senior Research Scientist for NASA at the Goddard Space Flight Center. He describes his involvement in the research done with the laser interferometer located in the Poor Man mine. He explains the significance of that research and the many developments that subsequently evolved from that project

Current and former NIST employees gathered on June 24, 2021, to share an oral history interview about NIST's Microfabrication (Cleanroom) in Boulder, Colorado. Those recorded for this oral history included Jim Beall, Richard (Dick) Harris, Don McDonald, Richard (Dick) Kautz, Clark Hamilton, Robert (Bob) Phelan, Jr., Dave Redmund. Rebecca Jacobson of the NIST Boulder Public Affairs Office faclitated the interview
Sensitivity of Bacteria, Protozoa, Viruses, and Other Microorganisms to Ultraviolet Radiation
Data concerning the sensitivity of various organisms to ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure are very important in the design of UV disinfection equipment. This review analyzes fluence data from almost 250 studies and organizes the data into a set of recommended fluence values for specific log reductions and an appendix containing all the collected data

Oral History of Judah Levine - June 29, 2021
Judah Levine discusses his involvement in the Poor Man mine located west of Boulder, CO. Dr. Levine joined the NBS-University of Colorado Joint Institute of Laboratory Astrophysics (JILA) as a postdoc in 1967, and then was hired at the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) in 1969. He is currently a Fellow at NIST and is the leader of the Network Synchronization Project in the Time and Frequency Division. He describes the laser interferometer that was built in a shaft of the Poor Man mine and explains its history and its use as an early earth-level strain meter. He further discusses his involvement with the geophysical community resulting from his early work in the mine. The interview was conducted by William Kirchhoff and John Lowe
K. ROBERT GLENN
NBS/NIST: 1987–2020
INDUCTED: 2021
B: 1964, Brookville, Pennsylvania
EDUCATION:
Clarion University, BS (Computer Science), 1987
Johns Hopkins University, MS (Computer Science), 1993
CITATION:
For establishing and managing the highly successful NIST-wide operational cybersecurity program, balancing risk and mission, enabling broad use of information technology, and protecting NIST computers, networks, data, and reputation against cybersecurity threats
POSITIONS HELD AT NBS/NIST:
Computer Scientist, Advanced Network Technologies Division, Information Technology Laboratory (ITL), 1987-2000
Network and System Administrator, Advanced Network Technologies Division, ITL, 1987-2000
Information Technology Security Officer, Office of the Chief Information Officer/Office of Information Systems Management (OISM), Management Resources (MR), 2000-2020
Chief, Information Technology Security and Networking Division, OISM, MR, 2003-2020
SIGNIFICANCE OF WORK:
Mr. Glenn leveraged his early network and network security standards and system administrator experience to develop and manage a robust operational cybersecurity and network operations program, balancing risk and mission needs, supporting over 25,000 NIST computers, campus networks in Maryland and Colorado, NIST administrative and research data, the financial services used by NIST and several Department of Commerce (DOC) Bureaus, the secure configuration of all DOC computers, and the development of new DOC directives. The program also protected NIST’s technical reputation through the implementation of the federal cybersecurity standards developed and promulgated by NIST, ensuring the security of NIST data and critical systems. Working closely with the Information Technology Laboratory, the program benefited from access to a broad group of cybersecurity expertise and leading-edge research and supported the NIST federal cybersecurity standards mission providing operational feedback on new standards.
