About Michael Sullivan

Mike Sullivan recently retired as Professor of Mathematics at Chicago State University, having taught there for more than 30 years. He received his PhD in mathematics from Illinois Institute of Technology. He is a native of Chicago’s South Side and currently resides in Oak Lawn, Illinois. Mike has four children; the two oldest have degrees in mathematics and assisted in proofing, checking examples and exercises, and writing solutions manuals for this project. His son Mike Sullivan, III co-authored the Sullivan Graphing with Data Analysis series as well as this series. Mike has authored or co-authored more than ten books. He owns a travel agency, and splits his time between a condo in Naples, Florida and a home in Oak Lawn, where Mike enjoys gardening.   Mike Sullivan, III is a professor of mathematics at Joliet Junior College. He holds graduate degrees from DePaul University in both mathematics and economics. Mike is an author or co-author on more than 20 books, including a statistics book and a developmental mathematics series. Mike is the father of three children and an avid golfer who tries to spend as much of his limited free time as possible on the golf course. Jessica Bernards has been teaching mathematics since 2005. She began her career at the high school level and then transitioned to teaching at Portland Community College in 2010. She has taught a wide range of mathematics courses from Developmental Math up to Calculus and has created curriculum for all of these levels. Additionally, Jessica is a member of AMATYC's Project ACCCESS Cohort 9, where she developed a Math Study Skills Program which is now used across the nation. In 2017, she was the honored recipient of the Leila and Simon Peskoff AMATYC Award for her work with Project ACCCESS. Wendy Fresh has been full-time instructor at Portland Community College since 1997 and has taught a wide range of classes from Developmental Math through Calculus, both on campus and online. Before teaching at PCC, Wendy began her teaching career in 1992, teaching high school at both rural and urban schools. Her love of creating curriculum to make the classroom come alive has led her to working with technologies that can be incorporated into her many courses. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics Education from the University of Oregon and her Master’s Degree in the Teaching of Mathematics from Portland State University.
