Dennis Healy was a mathematician of extraordinary scientific breadth, influence, and
vision. He had enormous impact in the development of fundamental applied
mathematics, such as compressed sensing, and in the unrivaled excellence of state of
the art government programs which he initiated. He was a world expert in sampling
theory, and was considered a polymath by his peers in the broad area integrating
quantum physics, signal analysis, image processing, quantization, and a host of
other subjects dealing with fundamental initiatives relating both pure science and
national security. Dr. Healy died in 2009 at the age of 52.
