This puzzle was inspired by my favorite mathematician, Emmy Noether. Noether was a brilliant algebraist who became particularly well known for her work with rings. One day, the particularly funny thought popped into my mind that she could aptly be described as a RING LEADER or even a RING MASTER. This led me down the garden path of other famous historical thinkers that might be humorously described in other ways. I hope this puzzle makes you chuckle!
I'm enormously grateful to my mentor, the wonderful editor Christina Iverson. She supported my efforts on this puzzle from start to finish — without her, this puzzle wouldn't exist. Thank you, Christina!
I've been so grateful to the crossword constructor community over the years — many of my happiest moments in life have involved a coffee in one hand and a crossword in the other. It's such a delight to join the ranks and contribute a puzzle of my own. Happy solving!
