Description: This paper studies actuaries' educational backgrounds and social relationships. The purpose of the study is two-fold. It looks at the educational backgrounds of actuaries and how their backgrounds affect their careers. By this, the author wants to see if things such as the major studied or the attendance of graduate school affected the time to attain Associateship and Fellowship in the Society of Actuaries. Secondly, the author wants to know if being in the actuarial profession has any effect on marriage and family, as well as to know if marriage and family has any effect on the career.

Description: This paper contains personal reflections by Cecil Nesbitt of his 60 years as an actuarial student, teacher, practitioner and researcher to highlight actuarial highlights in North America since 1900. This article is not intended to be a definitive history of actuarial science developments in North America since the beginning of the century. Instead, readers should turn first to 'Actuarial Mathematics' [Proc. Symp. Appl. Math. 35, 1986] and peruse it alongside this article to gain detailed, introductory overviews of the diverse actuarial models that will be mentioned in this paper. The non-exhaustive list of references at the end of this paper is selected to aid such review by pointing the way to other more complete lists in regard to various topics mentioned herein.
