Perhaps no single individual has had a greater impact on defining American cartography of the twentieth century. During his career, Arthur Howard Robinson defined the field of cartography and firmly established it as a set of elementary theories, hypotheses, principles, and concepts. Along the way he served as a model academician, deftly juggling teaching (production of students), research, and professional service. Known as Robbie to his friends, colleagues, and graduate students, Arthur Robinson set an example that few, if any, have emulated.
