William L. Abramowitz Residency

The Abramowitz Lecture Series was established at MIT through the generosity and imagination of William L. Abramowitz 1935 as a memorial to his father. It has been sustained since his death by the devoted interest of his wife and children. Since 1961, the series has brought renowned performing artists and writers to MIT to perform, present public lectures, and collaborate with students in free programs.
