| May 31, 2013 at 13:38 | comment | added | Michael Greenblatt | Mandelbrot was a Yale math professor, had a PhD in math, and had numerous math publications, including many before his work on fractals. Working primarily in other branches of math doesn't make someone an amateur or another kind of "non professional mathematician". | |
