Chris Impey received his Ph. D. in 1981 from the University of
Edinburgh.  Despite that he still managed to find employment 
in astronomy.  He held Post Docs in Hawaii and CalTech before
migrating to the desert where he is now an Associate Professor
of Astronomy at the University of Arizona.  In addition to work
LSB galaxies, Impey also does research on the nature of Quasar
absorption lines (which of course are all caused by LSB galaxies)
and enigmatic radio galaxies known as BLAZARS.
