ABOUT GEORGE KIMELDORF, PH.D.
George Kimeldorf has a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Michigan, and has retired as a Professor from the University of Texas at Dallas. He took a course in happiness which met one weekend per month for five years. He thought he knew the path to happiness as defined by his parents, friends, and society: marry a wonderful woman, raise two lovely children, have a successful career, and become wealthy. But he found that after achieving what he thought were the keys to happiness, he wasn’t actually all that happy. So he became a seeker to find what it truly means to experience true joy, everyday, and after a long journey he finally discovered the key to everyday happiness.
