Upon graduation in the late 50's from the Institute of Design, Illinois Institute of Technology, MM was employed by Kaiser Aluminum, Chicago, to work under Don Richter, (second from left) on the design team of the Kaiser Aluminum Geodesic Dome. On the team was Bill Tokeshi (4th on the right) who programmed the structural and panel dimensions for a line of domes of varying diameters from 145 feet and up, calculating them on a room-sized Univac, (then advanced technology) eliminating the complex "hand"- dimensioning otherwise required. MM was so taken with spherical geometry that it was almost all he thought about an entire year..
