Benjamin A. Horwitz
Benjamin A. Horwitz was born in 1945 in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. He graduated
in 1967 from the University of Pittsburgh with a B.Sc. in Chemical Engineering
and received a Masters Degree in Mathematics from Cleveland State University in
1980. He spent two years in Bhopal, India as a Peace Corps Volunteer providing
technical consulting to small-scale industries. He has taught the Process Design
Course for chemical engineering seniors at both Cleveland State University and
Case Western Reserve University. Presently, he is an Adjunct Professor at
Cleveland State University. After spending 25 years in industry working as a
chemical engineer, Ben became an independent chemical engineering consultant
specializing in plant start-ups and de-bugging chemical/pharmaceutical plant
operations. In addition, he gives seminars on the use of
mathematical/process-simulation software. He is a well-known author of articles
on the art and practice of chemical engineering and is a member of the Editorial
Advisory Board of a leading magazine in the field. His writing has recently
expanded from the realm of technology to drama. Following the lead set by Frank
Capra, (writer/director of It’s a Wonderful Life) also a graduate
chemical engineer, Ben wrote his first play, It’s Twilight Time. He has
recently completed his second play titled: F.U.J.W. Gibbs. This one act
play about science and scientists will soon appear on this same web-site.
