Abstract

Early in 1986, a new journal Statistical Science of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics appeared. This is a journal Ingram Olkin was intimately involved in founding. One of the most popular features of Statistical Science is its interviews with distinguished statisticians and probabilists. In the spirit of those interviews, the Editors of this volume wanted to include an interview with Ingram. However, one does not “interview” Ingram; one simply starts him talking, and sits back to listen and enjoy.
