I am an Electrical Engineer who has worked in
the fields of digital signal processing and speech processing for my entire
career. My specialty has been digital signal processing for automatic speech
recognition and I have worked on and built a number of innovative systems
for AT&T for speech recognition in the network.
I am married (for more than 35 years) with three daughters. My wife
Suzanne was a teacher in the Bayonne NJ school system. She retired in
June 2002. My oldest daughter, Sheri Gordon, is a lawyer in NYC. My middle
daughter, Wendi Heinzelman, is a professor of ECE at the University of Rochester,
working in the field of wireless networks. My youngest daughter, Joni Rabiner,
is a second year medical student at NYU Medical School. I have two grandchildren,
Tess, 22 months old, and Nate, 4 months old.
I have a joint academic appointment between Rutgers University (9 months
each year) and the University of California at Santa Barbara where I teach
3 months each year.
