...orthopedic surgeon from Richmond, William Brickhouse, 35, will be there, walking the grounds that his great-great-grandfather may once have tilled. So will a Rochester chemist, William Baum, 44. Likewise the Democratic leader of the Maryland senate, Clarence W. Blount, 65; a chef from New London, Conn., Archie Dunbar, 24; an elder of the Gospel Temple Church of Christ in Manhattan, Joseph Baum, 65; one of Redford's high school classmates, Herman Bonner, 45, of Portsmouth, Va., an aircraft-maintenance manager who did not know he was kin to Redford until she began her research; and the owner...
...California surfers, Michael Rodgers, 25, and Tony Cassella, 28, came up with the idea for colored sunscreens in 1982, but it took them more than three years to recruit a chemist and find a lab to make the product.

The Cuban-born executive, trained as a chemist, has generated criticism aplenty since he took the helm in 1980. Some of that controversy began well before he tampered with Merchandise 7X, the secret Coke formula that has been kept under corporate lock and key ever since the soft drink's invention...
...family. Borlov's name has been changed. He is a scientist who was expelled from his job after applying for a visa in 1980. A few years later, officials voted to strip him of his Doctor of Science degree because of his "anti-political activity." Similarly, his wife, a chemist, is now unemployed. His daughter Marina, a bright woman who reads English literature voraciously, now baby-sits full time. Before applying to leave, she was studying chemical engineering; the university failed her and forced her to leave school...
