Thomas Stoltz HarveyDr. Thomas Stoltz Harvey (October 10 1912 – April 5 2007) was a pathologist who conducted the autopsy on Albert Einstein in 1955. Additional recommended knowledgeHe kept Einstein's brain after the autopsy, apparently without permission from the Einstein family. The controversy that this provoked cost Harvey his job. In August, 1978, New Jersey Monthly reporter Steven Levy published an article: I Found Einstein's Brain based on his interview with Dr. Harvey when he was living in Wichita, Kansas. In 1988, Dr. Harvey retired and moved to Lawrence, Kansas. In 1996, Harvey moved from Weston, Missouri to Titusville, New Jersey. In 1998, Harvey delivered the entire brain to Dr. Elliot Krauss, a pathologist at Princeton University. In 2005, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Einstein's death, the 93-year-old Harvey was able to give interviews regarding the remarkable history of the brain from his home in New Jersey.
