The winners of the prizes and awards associated with the 2021 JMM<\/a> have been announced<\/a>.\u00a0 You can find more information about them in the Prize Booklet<\/a>. \u00a0Below is a list of the prizewinners, with links to their author profiles in MathSciNet<\/a>.\u00a0 Some of the winners don\u2019t have author profiles in MathSciNet, such as the journalists Richard Campbell<\/a> and Rosemary Pennington<\/a> from Miami University who are receiving the JPBM Communications Award or Lynda Wiest<\/a>, who has published over 175 books, articles, and chapters<\/a> on topics in mathematics education, educational equity, and teacher education. \u00a0For some others, there is an author profile in MathSciNet, but it only represents a small fraction of their publications, such as Erica Klarreich<\/a>, who is also receiving the JPBM Communications Award.\u00a0 Her earliest publications, which are in MathSciNet, are on Kleinian group actions, but the main body of her work is in places like\u00a0 Quanta Magazine<\/a>, Nature<\/a><\/em>, New Scientist<\/em>, and The Atlantic<\/em>.\u00a0 If there was no author profile in MathSciNet, the link in the list below is to their webpage.<\/p>\n

The prizes and awards represent various bands in the spectrum of the world of mathematics.\u00a0 There are undergraduates being recognized for their research, as well as senior professors being recognized for lifetime achievement.\u00a0 Several people are being recognized for broadening mathematics, through communication or diversity efforts.\u00a0 Some are being recognized for excellence in teaching.\u00a0 I congratulate the winners.\u00a0 They represent the many ways that people make the mathematics community better.<\/p>\n
