To learn more about Paul Erdos, you can visit any of a number of sites. For example, to learn about the Erdos number, I highly recommend The Erdös Number Project. For a biography of Erdos, the most prolific mathematician of all time, click here. To try to trace collaborations to Erdos, try the AMS's MathSciNet tool. The photo of Erdos is taken from the American Mathematical Society website.
