Abstract
In 1958, the Institute of Radio Engineers awarded its Medal of Honor to Albert W. Hull. He was cited for his "outstanding scientific achievement and pioneering inventions and development in the field of electron tubes." He spent most of his professional career in research and research management at the General Electric Research Laboratory in Schenectady, NY. He was the author of numerous technical papers and received at least 94 patents. He is remembered especially for his research and inventions related to the dynatron, magneton, and thyratron.
