Actuaries at the Dawn of the Computer Age

James Hickman and Linda Heacox

North American Actuarial Journal, 1999, vol. 3, issue 3, 1-3

Abstract: The NAAJ is honoring the Society of Actuaries in 1999, its golden anniversary year, by publishing a series of articles on the contributions of actuaries to the development of ideas. In this issue, we look at the advent of the use of computers in insurance operations. We begin with a short essay by James C. Hickman and conclude with comments by the actuaries who were there when computers entered the world of business, changing it forever.
