Frank Anthony Wilczek (born May 15, 1951) is a theoretical physicist from the United States and a Nobel laureate. He is currently the Herman Feshbach Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Wilczek, along with David Gross and H. David Politzer, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2004 for their discovery of asymptotic freedom in the theory of the strong interaction.
Born in Mineola, New York, of Polish and Italian origin, Wilczek was educated in the public schools of Queens, attending Martin Van Buren High School. It was around this time Wilczek's parents realized that he was exceptional - in part as a result of Frank Wilczek having been administered an IQ test.
He received his Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at the University of Chicago in 1970, a Master of Arts in Mathematics at Princeton University, 1972, and a Ph.D. in physics at Princeton University in 1974. Wilczek holds the Herman Feshbach Professorship of Physics at MIT Center for Theoretical Physics. He worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

I don?t belong here
and you?ve said so
no footprints in the haze
you?ve heard me yellin?
and you?ve walked on
from that empty space
remember that freakshow
and it bored you
charming
with a dry eye on a lonely sunday
isn?t it standard now
like a faint smile
that, you say
will never matter again
i don?t know why i can?t get you off my mind
and when he wrath comes
like a bullet
you better take off from herein
so burn up your matches
i?m your witness
you say you wake up and take off and take off
your synthesized game
getting closer now
i see your satellite approaches the earth
isn?t it standard
you?ve come to be so blessed
and you will never worry again...
