William Edwin (Bill) Ricker (1908 – 2001) is best known as one of the founders of fishery science. He was also internationally recognized as an entomologist and a scientific editor. In an accompanying article written shortly before his death, Bill gives his own recollections of his career and intellectual development. A bibliography of Bill’s scientific publications, translations and manuscripts has been compiled by his son Karl, and accompanies this article. Karl has also written a detailed account of Bill’s early education and his accomplishments in botany and ornithology. Geoff Scudder summarizes Bill’s contributions to entomology, Jon Schnute provides both personal and professional insights into Bill’s mathematical accomplishments, and Dick Beamish and Don Noakes present personal recollections of Bill as a scientist and colleague.
