Life and research

Speer was born to mathematician Mary Speer and mathematician and lawyer Eugene R. Speer. He received his doctorate in 1969 from Princeton University under Arthur Strong Wightman with the dissertation: Generalized Feynman Amplitudes. In 1970 he became an instructor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology . Until his retirement he taught at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences at Rutgers University .
