Raymond Leslie Martin 1926–2020

Ray Martin (1926–2020) was a talented and successful academic and leader, who won numerous awards and made discoveries that changed fundamental knowledge of the sub-discipline of physical inorganic chemistry. His journey over more than 90 years is one that demonstrates that he was one of nature’s gentlemen, who enjoyed sports, arts and people. He was passionate about science and discovery, and through a series of chance events, had a peripatetic life moving from academic positions, to industry, management, a vice chancellorship at Monash University, and then scientific advisor to the Australian Federal Government. Throughout this journey, he always made strong friendships, was an exceptional teacher and outstanding mentor—he was a quiet achiever.
