Einstain
Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on Mar. 14, 1879. Einstein's parents, whowere non observant Jews, moved from Ulm to Munich when Einstein was an infant. Thefamily business was the manufacture of electrical parts. When the business failed, in 1894,the family moved to Milan, Italy. At this time Einstein decided officially to relinquish hisGerman citizenship. Within a year, still without having completed secondary school,Einstein failed an examination that would have allowed him to take a course of studyleading to a diploma as an electrical engineer at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.He spent the next year in nearby Aarau at the continual secondary school, where heenjoyed excellent teachers. Einstein returned in 1896 to the Swiss Federal Institute ofTechnology, where he graduated, in 1900 as a secondary school teacher of mathematics After two years he obtained a post at the Swiss patent office in Bern. Thepatent-office work required Einstein's careful attention, but while employed there hecompleted an astonishing range of publications in theoretical physics. For the most partthese texts were written in his spare time and without the benefit of close conta
He is nursed back to health byhis cousin, Elsa. 1902: In January, Mileva gives birth to their daughter, Lieserl, whom they eventually putup for adoption. Mileva, visibly pregnant, moves to Stein AmRhein, three miles upriver. 1933: Albert and Elsa set sail for the United States. The next year Einsteinreceived a regular appointment as associate professor of physics at the University ofZurich. He and Milevameet in northern Italy for a tryst. 1940: Einstein becomes an American citizen; retains Swiss citizenship. 1889: At age 10, Albert sets into a program of self education andreads as much aboutscience as he can. 1903: Albert and Mileva marry in January1904: Mileva gives birth to their first son, Hans Albert. Physicists are now striving to combine Einstein's relativity theory with quantumtheory in a "theory of everything," by means of such highly advanced mathematical modelsas superstring theories. In quick succession he held professorships at the GermanUniversity of Prague and at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. Identified as a Jew, he begins to feel theheat of Nazi Germany.
