THIS BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR is based in part on my article about Kuiper in Sky and Telescope 47 (1974):159-164. In preparing this memoir, I have benefited from interviews and correspondence with the late Bart J. Bok, Martin Schwarzschild, E. A. Whitaker, Donald M. Hunten, W. J. Luyten, S. Chandrasekhar, J. Oort, W. W. Morgan, and especially Tom Gehrels. Numerous colleagues and students of Kuiper commented on early drafts. I thank Mrs. Sarah F. Kuiper Lansberg for her friendship, interest, and support in the preparation of this memoir.
