note = "Funding Information: Zimmerman came to the AFIP in 1953 at the age of 33 and remained there for the next 56 years. Many of the fellows Zim trained took positions in medical schools and hospitals in this country and elsewhere in the world and built upon the training and inspiration he provided. I began my own professional career at Yale in 1969 and obtained a research grant from the newly established National Eye Institute, which I maintained until 2007. I also started a clinical practice focused on ocular oncology. During my years at Yale, I collaborated closely with Ted Reid, a young and gifted biochemist, who joined the ophthalmology department at about the same time I did. Together we established the first continuous retinoblastoma cell line (Y-79) and demonstrated the presence of reverse transcriptase in retinoblastoma, the first solid tumor in which this enzyme was found. Our friendship and collaborations have continued to the present. ",
