E.L. Lehmann (1917 - 2009) was an American statistician and professor of statistics at the University of California, Berkeley. He made significant contributions to nonparametric hypothesis testing, and he is one of the eponyms of the Lehmann-Scheffé theorem and of the Hodges-Lehmann estimator. Dr. Lehmann was a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the recipient of honorary degrees from the University of Leiden, The Netherlands and the University of Chicago. He was the author of Elements of Large-Sample Theory (Springer 1999) and Theory of Point Estimation, Second Edition (Springer 1998, with George Casella).
nt of the Presidential Young Investigator Award and many other grants from the National Science Foundation, and he is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. His research has focused on such topics as: bootstrap and resampling methods, subsampling, randomization methods, inference, optimality, large-sample theory, nonparametrics, multiple hypothesis testing, and econometrics. He has invented or co-invented a variety of new statistical methods, including subsampling and the stationary bootstrap, as well as methods for multiple hypothesis testing. These methods have been applied to such diverse fields as clinical trials, climate change, finance, and economics.
