Sidney West Graham is a mathematician interested in analytic number theory and professor at Central Michigan University. He received his Ph.D., which was supervised by Hugh Montgomery, from the University of Michigan in 1977.[1] In his Ph.D. thesis he lowered the upper bound for Linnik's constant to 36 and subsequently reduced the bound further to 20.[2]
