BIOGRAPHY ALBERT EINSTEIN

Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879. He enjoyed classical music and had already played the violin at the age of six. Albert was self – sufficient, thoughtful, and a slow talker who considered what he would say afterwards. Albert Einstein´s first job was that of patent clerk. In 1933, he joined the staff of the newly created Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, New Jersey. By the time he wrote his mathematical equation about the nature of energy, E=MC2, he had written a paper with a new understanding of the structure of light, he argued that light consisted of particles of a gas. Albert Einstein had reinforced the kinetic theory, and he had created a powerful new tool for studying the movements of atoms.

One week before his death, Einstein signed his last letter. It was a letter to Bertrand Russell in which he asked nations to give up nuclear weapons. Einstein was cremated at Trenton, New Jersey at 4 pm, on April 18^th, 1955 (the day of his death). His ashes were scattered at an undisclosed place.
