John Fox received a BA from the City College of New York and a Ph D from the University of Michigan, both in Sociology. He is Professor Emeritus of Sociology at Mc Master University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, where he was previously the Senator William Mc Master Professor of Social Statistics. Prior to coming to Mc Master, he was Professor of Sociology, Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, and Coordinator of the Statistical Consulting Service at York University in Toronto. Professor Fox is the author of many articles and books on applied statistics, including /emph{Applied Regression Analysis and Generalized Linear Models, Third Edition} (Sage, 2016). He is an elected member of the R Foundation, an associate editor of the Journal of Statistical Software, a prior editor of R News and its successor the R Journal, and a prior editor of the Sage Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences monograph series.
