For those interested in optimization problems in general and linear programming in particular, there´s an excellent scientific mini-biography of George Dantzig available for download at http://www.ams.org/notices/200703/fea-cottle.pdf . Of special notice for researchers and practitioners nowadays is one of the latest subjects of interest for Dantzig: stochastic optimization. In his own words (see article above) "stochastic optimization is where the real problems are".
