Ilse Rosenthal-Schneider (25 April 1891 – 6 February 1990) was a German-Australian physicist and philosopher. She is best known for her collaboration and correspondence with physicists Albert Einstein, Max von Laue, and Max Planck.[1] [2] [3] Rosenthal-Schneider earned a PhD in philosophy in 1920 at the University of Berlin, where she first met Albert Einstein. After leaving Nazi Germany and emigrating to Australia in 1938, she became a tutor in the German department at the University of Sydney in 1945 and taught history and philosophy of science.[4] [5] In the 1940s and 1950s, she exchanged a series of letters with Albert Einstein about philosophical aspects of physics, such as theory of relativity,[6] fundamental constants and physical reality.[7] [8] [9] [10] She remained in contact with Einstein through correspondence until the death of Einstein in 1955.[11] Rosenthal-Schneider contributed various articles and book reviews to the history of science journal Isis.[12]
