Dean Everett Wooldridge (May 30, 1913 in Chickasha, Oklahoma – September 20, 2006 in Santa Barbara, California) was a prominent engineer in the aerospace industry. Something of a prodigy, Wooldridge graduated from high school at the age of 14. He received his bachelor's and master's degree from the University of Oklahoma. Like his future colleague Simon Ramo, Wooldridge went on to study at the California Institute of Technology under William Smythe, from which he received his PhD in physics (summa cum laude) in 1936, studying the separation of isotopes.

  • Dean Everett Wooldridge (May 30, 1913 in Chickasha, Oklahoma – September 20, 2006 in Santa Barbara, California) was a prominent engineer in the aerospace industry. Something of a prodigy, Wooldridge graduated from high school at the age of 14. He received his bachelor's and master's degree from the University of Oklahoma. Like his future colleague Simon Ramo, Wooldridge went on to study at the California Institute of Technology under William Smythe, from which he received his PhD in physics (summa cum laude) in 1936, studying the separation of isotopes. After leaving Caltech, Wooldridge moved first to Bell Laboratories, where he worked on the theory of magnetism. In 1946, he and Simon Ramo (his classmate at Caltech) both became director of research for the electronics department of Hughes Aircraft, and his career became coupled with that of Simon Ramo. Together they formed a successful team for many years, with Wooldridge concentrating on investment and general business aspects while Ramo led research, development and engineering efforts. By 1948, Hughes had created its Aerospace Group to work with the newly created U.S. Air Force. The Air Force became concerned with developing management issues at Hughes, and Ramo and Wooldridge were particularly concerned when Howard Hughes avoided their attempts to discuss the problem. In September 1953, they jointly resigned, and within a week they formed the Ramo-Wooldridge Corporation on September 16, 1953. In 1958, Ramo-Wooldridge merged with Thompson Products to form TRW, which carried on the success of its predecessor. It handled system engineering and technical direction for numerous Air Force projects. Wooldridge served as president of TRW until he retired in 1962. He returned to Caltech as a research associate and published several books about the physical processes underlying biology and intelligence, winning the AAAS-Westinghouse award for science writing in 1963. He was a member of the National Academy of Sciences. He died of pneumonia on September 20, 2006 in Santa Barbara, California. (en)

  • Dean Everett Wooldridge (Chickasha, 30 de maio de 1913 — Santa Bárbara, Califórnia, 20 de setembro de 2006) foi um engenheiro aeroespacial estadunidense. Wooldridge concluiu o ensino médio com 14 anos de idade. Obteve os títulos de bacharel e mestre na Universidade de Oklahoma. Como seu futuro colega Simon Ramo, partiu para a pós-graduação no Instituto de Tecnologia da Califórnia (Caltech), onde obteve um PhD em física (summa cum laude) em 1936, estudando a separação de isótopos, orientado por William Ralph Smythe. Após sair do Caltech foi primeiramente para os Bell Labs, onde trabalhou na teoria do magnetismo. Em 1946, ele e Simon Ramo (seu colega de classe no Caltech) tornaram-se diretores de pesquisa do departamento de eletrônica da Hughes Aircraft, e sua carreira fundiu-se à de Simon Ramo. Juntos, formaram uma equipe bem-sucedida por muitos anos, com Wooldridge concentrando-se em investimentos e aspectos gerais de negócios, enquanto Ramo liderou os esforços de pesquisa, desenvolvimento e engenharia. Em 1948 a Hughes criou seu Grupo Aeroespacial para trabalhar com a também recém-criada Força Aérea dos Estados Unidos (em inglês: United States Air Force - USAF). Ramo e Wooldridge ficaram particularmente preocupados quando Howard Hughes evitou suas tentativas de discutir a parceria com a USAF. Em setembro de 1953 eles se demitiram juntamente e, em uma semana, formaram a Ramo-Wooldridge Corporation em 16 de setembro de 1953. (pt)
