Biography

Jerry Brunner, sometimes officially known as Lawrence J. Brunner, retired from the University of Toronto on July 1, 2024. He still occasionally checks email.

Jerry has a Ph.D. in Statistics from the State University of New York (1989) and an even earlier one in Social Psychology from the University of Chicago (1978). He came to the University of Toronto in 1989. He lives with his family in an ivory tower at the top of a mountain, pictured below. The mountain is occasionally visible from a distance, but does not appear on any maps.
