Albert Eintstein II

Albert Einstein was born in Ulm. His father was Hermann Einstein, a salesman and engineer and his mother was Pauline Einstein. The Einsteins were non-observant Jews. Although Einstein had early speech difficulties, he was a top student in elementary school. Einstein published more than 300 scientific and over 150 non-scientific works. Einstein is best known for his theories of special relativity and general relativity. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics “for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.”
