Use your library or the internet as a resource. Ask a librarian
to help you find the appropriate index or other source that contains
the information you need. Or go to the Academy of Achievement at

a photograph,
biographical sketch, and an interview for each person listed.
Submit your findings to your professor in an e-mail message or hand in the completed assignment in class.
