- JOSA, Vol. 2, Issue 3, pp. 90- [full text: PDF]
Perley G. Nutting, OSA's primary founder and first president (in 1916 and 1917), contributed more than a dozen papers to volumes 1 through 7 of JOSA (plus one additional paper as late as volume 19). His OSA presidential successors during the early decades of OSA also typically contributed from 10 to 20 papers to JOSA over their long careers in optics.
Following is a listing of the first 20 OSA presidents, serving from 1916 until 1952, along with the articles they published in JOSA. Click on a president's name to jump to his articles.
