Abstract

The Center for Nonlinear Studies (CNLS) was an integral part of my scientific career starting as a Postdoctoral Fellow in 1983 up to my tenure as CNLS Director from 2004 to 2015. As such, I experienced a number of scientific phases of CNLS through almost four decades of foundation, evolution, and transition. Throughout this entire interval, the inspiration and influence of David Campbell guided my way. A proper history of CNLS encompassing all of the many contributors to the CNLS story is beyond my means or purpose here. Instead, I present the history as I experienced it. I emphasize the main scientific accomplishments achieved at CNLS over more than 40 years, but I will also attempt to describe and quantify the attributes that made and continue to make the Center for Nonlinear Studies a special institution of remarkable impact and longevity. Throughout its existence, CNLS owes much to the enduring legacy of David Campbell who laid down the foundations and operating principles that have made it so successful.
