Keith James Devlin (born 16 March 1947) is a British mathematician and popular science writer. Since 1987 he has lived in the United States. He has dual British-American citizenship.[3]
Education

He was born and grew up in England, in Kingston upon Hull, where he attended Greatfield High School.[3] Devlin earned a BSc (special) in mathematics at King`s College London in 1968, and a mathematics PhD in logic at the University of Bristol in 1971 under the supervision of Frederick Rowbottom.[3][5]
Career

Later he got a position as a scientific assistant in mathematics at the University of Oslo, Norway, from August till December 1972. In 1974 he became a scientific assistant in mathematics at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. In fall 1976 he was an assistant professor of mathematics at the University of Toronto, Canada. From spring 1977 through 1987 he served as a lecturer, then reader, in mathematics at the University of Lancaster, England. From 1987 to 1989 he was a visiting associate professor of mathematics and philosophy at Stanford University in California. From 1989 to 1993 he was the Carter Professor and Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Colby College in Maine. From 1993 to 2000 he was Dean of Science at St. Mary`s College of California.[3]

From 2001 until he retired he was a senior researcher at the Center for the Study of Language, an independent research center at Stanford University.[3] He was also co-founder and executive director of Stanford University`s former Human-Sciences and Technologies Advanced Research Institute (2006), and a co-founder of Stanford Media X university-industry research partnership program.[3] He was a commentator on National Public Radio`s Weekend Edition Saturday, where he was known as `The Math Guy.`[6]

His current research is mainly focused on the use of different media to teach mathematics to different audiences. He is also co-founder and president of the company BrainQuake, which creates mathematics learning video games, which he set up in 2011.[7] Other topics of his research are the theory of information, models of reasoning, applications of mathematical techniques in the study of communication, and mathematical cognition.[8]

As of 2012 he had authored 29 books and over 80 research or expository articles. Most of his books are aimed at a general audience.[3]
Awards

Joint Policy Board for Mathematics Communications Award, 2001[3]
In 2007 he received Wonderfest`s Carl Sagan Prize for Science Popularization.[9]
2004 International Pythagoras Prize in Mathematics, in the category Best Expository Text in the Mathematical Sciences for the Italian translation of The Millennium Problems[10]
Fellow of the American Mathematical Society, 2012[11]
