Linda Keen is a Professor of Mathematics at Lehman College, City University of New York (CUNY), where she has been teaching since 1968. Promoted to full professor in 1974, she has held leadership roles including President of the Association for Women in Mathematics (1992–1993) and Vice-President of the American Mathematical Society (1992–1995). Her research focuses on complex analysis and dynamical systems, with notable contributions to the study of Riemann surfaces, Kleinian groups, and transcendental dynamics. She has delivered invited addresses at major conferences, including the AMS and MAA, and received prestigious awards such as the AWM Noether Lecture (1993) and election to the AMS Fellows (2012).
Her academic career includes a Ph.D. from New York University’s Courant Institute (1964) under Lipman Bers, with a thesis on canonical polygons for Fuchsian groups. Keen’s work bridges complex analysis and geometry, with over 70 peer-reviewed publications and contributions to textbooks like Hyperbolic Geometry from a Local Viewpoint. She collaborates with researchers globally, exploring topics from parameter spaces of meromorphic functions to geometric group theory.
Keen’s awards and recognitions highlight her leadership and scholarship, including the AWM Emmy Noether Lecture profile and zbMATH author ID: keen.linda. Her research spans theoretical advances and applications, with recent focus on transcendental maps, dynamical systems, and geometric structures.
