This means that copies of their theses contain a biographical sketch up to the time of the theses. Phong is not Phong. His full name is Bui Tuong Phong. I belive the proper surname is Bui Tuong (it is definitely not Phong). The second edition of Newman and Sproull is dedicated to him (1942-1975).

And Henri Gouraud is alive and living in Paris. He started some years ago a company named Tangram (with Patrick Baudelaire) and is now working for DEC at the research lab they started in Europe/France/Paris. He is probably on the net, maybe too busy to log on.
