IEEE Fellow - Dr. John Tanaka
(1924-2012)

Dr. Tanaka received his B.A. in chemistry from UCLA in 1951 and his Ph.D. from Iowa State University in 1956. From 1956-63 he taught chemistry at South Dakota State and also spent summers, during this period, working on electrical insulation problems at Westinghouse.

His research has involved the aging of electrical insulating materials and the nature of space charge as a function of the chemical characteristics of fillers.
