This is a r ecording of a live-streamed event that took place on Monday\, June 1\, 2026.
\n \ nAppropria te for all ages.
\n \nDid you ever wonder what a mathematician does all day? Or wha t made someone decide to become a mathematician? Or even\, what a mathematician does for fun? You may be surprised by some of the answers!
\n \nJoin Dr. Arthur Benjamin\, MoMath's 2025–2026 V isiting Professor for Public Outreach\, as he welc omes Steven Miller to the MoMath stage to share hi s experiences\, his story\, and his love of mathem atics.
\n \nThe Fibonacci numbers are full of beautiful patterns\, surprising connections\, a nd rich mathematical ideas. In this lively presen tation\, Steven Miller will explore some of the ma ny ways these famous numbers appear in mathematics and beyond\, including their connection to the go lden ratio. Along the way\, participants will enc ounter elegant properties\, unexpected application s\, and the sheer pleasure of mathematical discove ry.
\n \nSteven Miller earned a BS in mathe matics and physics from Yale and a PhD in mathemat ics from Princeton. His work spans many areas of mathematics\, and he is especially committed to sh aring the beauty\, playfulness\, and surprising re ach of the field.
