It was only recently that my interest in my father's work was awakened by Margaret Dennis and Carlene Stephens
from the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution. I was able to
assist them with an interview they conducted with my father and I was hooked on the
history of the Accutron from then on! Thank you Maggie and Carlene for making me
realize how special my father's accomplishments really are.
Once started on the quest to unveil the story of the Accutron, I quickly found
kindred spirits on the internet. Many thanks to Sean Connor
for helping me and encouraging me to write this webpage.
And of course my most sincere thanks go to my parents Max
and Ruth Hetzel for answering my numerous questions and for letting me look through
their archives. I could not have written this page without you!
