Fellow of the International Association for Cryptologic Research

The IACR Fellows Program was started in 2004. There are six Fellows in the inaugural class:

• Tom Berson
• David Chaum
• Don Coppersmith
• Whitfield Diffie
• Ron Rivest
• Adi Shamir

This honor is deeply meaningful to me. Who besides one's peers can really understand and evaluate what one has accomplished?
