Ron or Ronald Graham may refer to:
Ron Graham (17 December 1926 Aldershot, England, UK) is an English Australian actor who has appeared in many theatre and television roles. He was a regular in short lived police oriented soap opera Waterloo Station (1983).
Ron is the father of actor Marcus Graham.
Ronald (Ron) Lewis Graham (born October 31, 1935) is a mathematician credited by the American Mathematical Society as being "one of the principal architects of the rapid development worldwide of discrete mathematics in recent years". He has done important work in scheduling theory, computational geometry, Ramsey theory, and quasi-randomness.
He is currently the Chief Scientist at the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (also known as Cal-(IT)2) and the Irwin and Joan Jacobs Professor in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD).
Graham was born in Taft, California. In 1962, he received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of California, Berkeley and began working at Bell Labs and later AT&T Labs. He was director of information sciences in AT&T Labs, but retired from AT&T in 1999 after 37 years.
His 1977 paper considered a problem in Ramsey theory, and gave a "large number" as an upper bound for its solution. This number has since become well known as the largest number ever used in a mathematical proof (was listed as such in the Guinness Book of Records), and is now known as Graham's number, although it has since then been surpassed by even larger numbers such as TREE(3).

Plot: A Melbourne family is very happy living where they do, near the Melbourne airport (according to Jane Kennedy, it's "practically their back yard"). However, they are forced to leave their beloved home, by the Government and airport authorities. 'The Castle' is the story of how they fight to remain in their house, taking their case as far as the High Court.

Plot: Narcissistic Saskatchewan Tory politician Colin Thatcher is engaged in a bitter divorce from his wife Jo-Ann. When a series of court rulings over the divorce go against him, Thatcher decides a more drastic solution is needed - murder! A series of attempts on Jo-Ann's life follow, most of which don't succeed. Finally one does, and the arrogant Thatcher believes he is above the law and immune to prosecution. But his arrogance proves to be his undoing, as Crown Counsel Serge Kujawa builds a case against this psychopathic monster for 1st-degree murder - charging that Thatcher hired someone to kill his wife. The true story of one of the most disturbing stories of murder-for-hire in Canada.

It's not only just astronomical, it's beyond astronomical - Professor Ronald Graham It was in the Guinness world records as the largest number ever used in a serious mathematical proof.

Big Brothers Big Sisters Cornwall & District made a BIG announcement, the hiring of their new Executive Director Ron Graham.
Ronald Graham, a mathematician and computer scientist at the University of California, San Diego, has been selected as a member of the inaugural class of Fellows of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM). Calit2 Chief Scientist Ronald Graham talks about the SIAM Fellowship, juggling theoretical and applied math, and President Obama's pledge to put science "front and center" in his Administration.

This is because my brain is small. Apologies to Professor Graham who has a big brain and unsurprisingly explained his number flawlessly. This video is designed as a correction that can also stand alone. It will be our last Graham's Number video (for a little while, at least!) With thanks to Simon Pampena and Mike Lawler.
