My computer graphics professor back in the early 80's was Prof. Glen Bresenham, but not The Bresenham. It was a lot of fun being at SIGGRAPH back then and watching people freak upon reading his name badge. He'd let them believe for a bit, and then explain it's not him. Al Acorn was one that freaked, and that was fun.
