Abstract Electrical engineer Herbert Winful was born on December 12, 1952 in London, England and raised in Cape Coast, Ghana. His father Herbert Francis was an engineer, and his mother Margaret Ferguson Graves was a teacher. Winful received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering in 1975 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1981, he graduated from the University of Southern California earning his Ph.D. in electrical engineering. From 1980 to 1986, Winful worked at GTE Laboratories, later named Verizon Research & Development Laboratories, in Waltham, Massachusetts. The Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences Department at University of Michigan hired Winful as an associate professor in 1987. Winful was promoted to full professor in 1992, and one year later the University of Michigan promoted him to an endowed professorship - Thurnau Professor. The University of Michigan recognized Winful with the Amoco/University Teaching Award, the State of Michigan Teaching Award, and the EECS Professor of the Year Award.
