Bendall, Hill's Royal Society memorialist, in September 1992 and June 1993. OUTLINE OF THE CAREER OF ROBIN HILL Robert Hill (he was knownto his friends and colleagues as Robin) was born in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, on 2 April 1899. He was educated at Bedales School until 1917 when he was admitted to Emmanuel College Cambridge. Before he could begin his university studies Hill became eligible for war service. He joined the Cambridge University Officers' Training Corps but in the autumn of 1917 was drafted into the infantry. In February 1918, after a short spell in training on Salisbury Plain, he wastransferred to the Anti-Gas Establishment of the Royal Engineers, based at University College London. In 1919 Hill resumed his studies at Cambridge where he wasto remain for the rest of his academic career. He read Chemistry, Physics and Botanyin the Natural Sciences Tripos, specialising in Chemistry in Part Il and graduated with first-class degree. At Bedales SchoolHill had developed a scientific interest in natural dyes and dyeing techniques. He created his own dyesandin later years Hill made up the paints he usedin his water-colour paintings. This interest and his chemistry degree contributed to Hill's first postgraduate research, on inorganic pigments. In 1922 Hill joined F.G. Hopkins's Department of Biochemistry. To his disappointment, he was directed by Hopkins away from plant biochemistry to research on haemoglobin. His work on haemoglobin led to the reversible separation of the pigment and protein components, and to subsequent research onthe propertiesof artificial haemoglobins with other metals replacing the iron of the haem pigment. After a series of papers on the properties of haemoglobin, a mutual interestin haem compoundsledin 1926to collaboration with David Keilin, then working at the MoltenoInstitute, Cambridge,ontheisolation of cytochromec. Anotherearly interest of Hill's had been meteorology. His first scientific paper was on the sunspots of February 1917. In the early 1920sHill developed a ‘fish-eye' camera, a camerawith a lens able to photograph through 180°, and thus able to photograph the whole sky at once. It wasfirst described R. Hill NCUACS46/2/94 5 at a meeting of the Royal Meteorological Society in 1924. The firm R. & J. Beck Ltd marketed the camera but although the camera aroused muchinterest it was not widely adopted. After a visit to Singapore and the Dutch East Indies in 1932 Hill continued his research on haemoglobin with a study of its oxygen binding affinity, especially that of myoglobin (muscle haemoglobin). As with his researcheswith Keilin this employed spectroscopic methods, at whichHill became adept. In the 1930s Hill turned to plant biochemistry. He worked on the chemistry of anthraquinone colouring matters and otherglycosidesin plants and in 1938 received a Royal Society grant for work on madderdye. Hill began to study photosynthesis in 1936, with research into oxygen evolution by chloroplasts, work related to his research on haemoglobin. In 1937 he discovered the 'Hill reaction’. Whenisolated chloroplasts from green plant leaves wereilluminated in the presence of certain iron containing salts they produced oxygen while the iron underwent reduction. The amount of oxygen evolved wasinitially small, requiring considerable ingenuity to measureit and Hill's experience with the spectroscopic determination of small amounts of oxygen in haemoglobin was very important. His discovery of the ‘Hill reaction’, followed by research on plant cytochromes established his reputation in this field. Despite this and his other research achievements Hill held no higher degree until the award of the Cambridge Sc.D. in 1942. In 1935 Hill married Priscilla, the sister of his friend E.B. Worthington. They bought Vatches Farm, in Barton near Cambridge. Here Hill grew many of the plants and fruit trees he was to use in his research. Hill's work from 1922 had been supported by a series of research grants from various bodies. In 1943, however, Hill was taken onto the scientific staff of the Agricultural Research Council. He remained working in Cambridge biochemistry department. Hill's interest in plant biochemistry remained broad. He continued researchinto plant and inorganic pigments and in 1943, in cooperation with the East Malling Research Station, Maidstone, Kent he undertook research on fruit tree rootstocks, muchofit on trees grown at Vatches Farm. In 1958 Hill was asked to advise on the biochemistry of tea fermentation by the Nyasaland Tea Association. He visited Nyasaland (Malawi) and helped formulate a biochemical research programme. Hill continued to receive most recognition for his work on photosynthesis. From the late 1950s Hill concentrated on the energetics of photosynthesis and in 1960 made his second great contribution to photosynthesis research with the discovery, with F.L. Bendall, of the 'Z scheme'of electron transport which linked two photochemical energy conversion processes within photosynthesis. They suggested that the electron carriers shuttle electrons from one photosystem,involving the splitting of water, to a second, able to reducea protein factor(later identified with the 'methaemoglobin-reducing factor' he had discovered) which transferred the electrons ultimately to carbon dioxide. Hill retired from the Agricultural Research Council in 1966 but his research activities continuedlittle diminished R. Hill NCUACS46/2/94 6 until his death in 1991. In his later years Hill worked particularly extensively on the wider issue of the application of the Second Law of Thermodynamics to photosynthesis. Althoughhisfirst major paper on this subject had been rejected for publication, three further papers were published in the 1980s. He continued also to pursue research on natural and inorganic dyes, fruit tree research and meteorology. Hill was accorded many honours,principally for his contributions to photosynthesis. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1946 and was awarded a Royal Medalof the Royal Society in 1963 and the Copley Medal in 1987. He was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1971, a Foreign Associate of the US National Academy of Sciences in 1975 and a Foreign Memberof the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei in 1975. In 1963 Hill was made an Honorary Fellow of Emmanuel College Cambridge and in the same year received the Charles E. Kettering Research Award and the First Award for Photosynthesis of the Society of American Plant Physiologists. Hill was elected a Member of the American Society of Biological Chemists in 1964 and received the Finsen Medal of the Comité International de Photobiologie in 1972. He received Honorary Degrees from the universities of Wurzburg (1986), Géttingen (1987) and Sheffield (1990). DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION The material is presented in the order given in the List of Contents. This collection covers almostall aspects of Hill's career. Section A, Biographical, consists principally of Hill's own records of his career, personal and family correspondence andphotographs. It includes summaries byHill of his research activities and some documentation of honours he received, including his election to the Fellowship of the Royal Society in 1946, and the award of its Royal and Copley medals. The section also includes notebooks used for recording domestic and personal matters. Section B, Research, is the largest in the collection. It documents all aspects of Hill's research except that relating to the fish-eye camera, which is to be found in section C. The papers in this section documentHill's research from his days at Bedales School to research notes written very shortly before his death, a period of over seventy years. Represented here are Hill's earliest scientific interests in meteorology and dyeing, school and undergraduate notes, Hill's first postgraduate research on inorganic pigments, and his subsequent investigations into the R. Hill NCUACS46/2/94 7 biochemistry of haemoglobin and haematin, including his collaboration from 1926 with Keilin on the isolation of cytochrome c. There is good documentation of his work on photosynthesis including research leading up to his 1937 discovery of the 'Hill reaction’, and his and F.L. Bendall's outlining of the 'Z scheme' in 1960. Hill's interest in the relationship of thermodynamics to photosynthesis is particularly well-represented - including a sequenceoffifty notebooks used over a period ofthirty years from 1960. Hill continued to work in other areas, most of which are representedin this section. These included work on the chemistry of anthraquinone colouring matters in plants in the 1930s, work on dye-stuffs, and collaboration with A.B. Beakbane and others at the East Malling Research Station on the biologyof fruit tree rootstocks. The bulk of the material is in the form of notebooks of various formats, but there are also research notes, graphs, calculations etc. Muchof this loose material was foundin Hill's folders or envelopes, often identified by subject titles inscribed thereon. At the end of the section is a sequence of photographsfoundloose. Section C, Fish-eye camera, provides documentation of Hill's development of the camera in the 1920s and 1930s. There are Hill's notebooks recording his development of the lens system, many photographstaken by Hill using the lens, correspondencerelating to the marketing of the camera by R. & J. Beck Ltd, and newspaper and magazine cuttings with photographs taken using the camera. The Whipple Museum ofthe History of Science, Cambridge holds further stereoscopic photographs and examplesofthe ‘fish-eye' camera. Section D, Cambridge University, is chiefly research reports on work in progress in plant biochemistry for the Department of Biochemistry annual reports and material relating to the funding of Hill's research from the 1920s until his retirement. Hill's teaching is documented in section F. Section E, Publications, brings together notes, drafts, correspondence andother related material for someofHill's work published or intended for publication c.1928-1985. This material has been linked wherepossibleto thelist of Hill's publications prepared for his Royal Society memoir by D.S. Bendall at A.12. It includes a number of drafts of Hill's work on the thermodynamic efficiency of photosynthesis, including those of papers submitted for publication to the Royal Society in 1961 and Nature in 1980 but rejected as unacceptable. There is also a sequence of editorial correspondence with journals and publishing houses. Thereis a set ofHill's published papers at E.118. Section F, Lectures, principally consists of material for Hill's teaching at Cambridge University. It includes notes for lectures and for practical classes in plant biochemistry, chiefly dating from the R. Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 8 1930s and 1950s, and material for a lecture in a series organised by Joseph Needham onthe history of biochemistry. Thereis very little material relating to public and invitation lectures. Section G, Societies and organisations,is slight. It comprises material relating to eleven British and international organisations. Of particular interest is material relating to the British Photobiology Group(later Society) of which Hill was a founder memberin 1955, and the Comité (later Association) International de Photobiologie - Hill was elected an Honorary Memberin 1968. Section H, Visits and conferences, presents a chronological sequence, 1928-1988, of some ofHill's engagementsboth in the UK and abroad. Those for which most documentation survivesare the visit of Hill to Singapore and the Dutch East Indies in 1932, his visit to France in 1947 as part of a Cambridge University/East Malling Research Station arboricultural expedition and a visit to Nyasaland (Malawi) in 1958 to advise on the biochemistry of tea fermentation (and the subsequent establishment of a research programme). Section J, Correspondence, is a substantial section. Hill rarely kept carbon copies or manuscript drafts of outgoing letters so the correspondenceis almost entirely incomingletters. In a few cases Hill made a roughdraft of a reply on the letter received. However, there are also a numberofHill's manuscript drafts, particularly those from the late 1970s, that have draft letters to two or more correspondents thereon. There are three extensive sequences of correspondence, from E.J.H. Corner, chiefly relating to Hill's visit to Singapore and the Dutch East Indies in 1932, with staff of the East Malling Research Station, in particular A.B. Beakbane, relating to joint research onfruit tree rootstocks from 1943, and with D.A. Walker, a fellow researcher on photosynthesis from the 1950s. There is also substantial scientific correspondence in section B, retained with other material with which it was found. Thereis also an index of correspondents. R. Hill NCUACS46/2/94 9 LOCATION OF OTHER MATERIAL Hill's letters home from Bedales School and during his First World Warservice are retained in family hands. The Whipple Museum of the History of Science, Cambridge holds an example of Hill's ‘fish-eye' camera and associated apparatus and further stereoscopic photographs.

A.90 ‘Correspondencerelating to the RS memoir on R.Hill by D.S. Bendall’. R. Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 22 SECTION B RESEARCH B.1 - B.329 The papers in this section document Hill's research from his days at Bedales School to research notes written very shortly before his death, a period of over seventy years. Represented here are Hill's earliest scientific interests in meteorology and dyeing, on which he workedwhilestill at school, school and undergraduate notes, Hill's first postgraduate research on inorganic pigments, and his subsequent investigations in the biochemistry of haemoglobin and haematin, including his collaboration from 1926 with D. Keilin on the isolation of cytochrome c. There is good documentation of his work on photosynthesis including research leading up to his 1937 discoveryof the ‘Hill reaction’ and his and F.L. Bendall's outlining of the 'Z scheme’ in 1960. Hill's interest in the relationship of thermodynamics to photosynthesis is particularly well-represented - including a sequenceoffifty notebooks used overa period of thirty years from 1960. Although Hill's reputation was foundedlargely on his work in photosynthesis he continued to workin other areas, most of which are representedin this section. These included dye-stuffs, the chemistry of anthraquinone colouring matters and other glycosidesin plants in the 1930s, and the biology of fruit tree rootstocks, carried out in collaboration with A.B. Beakbane and others at the East Malling Research Station from 1943. Not representedin this section is material relating to Hill's development of a camera with a fish-eye lens capable of taking photographs at 180°. This is documented in section C. The bulk of the material is in the form of notebooks of various formats, but there are also research notes, graphs, calculations etc. Much of this loose material was found in Hill's folders or envelopes, often identified by subjecttitles inscribed thereon. Thesetitles have been reproducedin the catalogue entries. At the end of the section is a sequence of photographs found loose. Whereapplicable reference has been made to the list of publications prepared by D.S. Bendall for his Royal Society memoir of Hill (A.12) in the form Bibliog. no. ... B.1-B.206 NOTEBOOKS B.207-B.323 RESEARCH NOTES B.324-B.329 PHOTOGRAPHS R. Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 NOTEBOOKS 23 Research Most of the records of Hill's research are preserved in the form of notebooks. They are presented in a roughly chronological sequence, from school notebooksfrom Bedalesto notes written shortly before his death. Someof these notebooks were used by Hill for work on a variety of topics, thus the same notebook might have notes on lenses, dyes and photosynthesis. Many have intercalated material, including manuscript notes andjottings, but also dried leaves and ferns and samples of dyed fabric. Manylater notebooks are paginated (almost invariably Hill numbered only the righthand page) and some have the page numbers of important worklisted on front coverorfirst page of the notebook. Notall the dates of Hill's found in the notebooks are necessarily reliable. A numberof earlier notebooks havelines in Hill's own code or language, eg B.39. Inserted at the front of number of the notebooks, or sequences of notebooks, are explanatory notes by D.S. Bendall, a Cambridge colleague of Hill's and his Royal Society memorialist, identifying the topics of research in the notebook. These have been used in the catalogue entries with the indication DSB.

Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 57 SECTION C FISH-EYE CAMERA C.1 - C.86 Hill had a long-standing interest in meteorology. In the early 1920s he began to work on a camera equipped with a ‘fish-eye' lens which could photograph through 180° and thus take photographsof the whole sky at one instant. Using a pair of fish-eye cameras one could calculate the height of clouds. In addition to photographing the whole sky Hill's camera it was also possible to photograph the whole ofthe inside of a building, town squareetc. The first form of lens was describedbyHill in 'A lens for whole sky photographs’, Quarterly Journalof the Royal Meteorological Society 50 (1924), 227-232 (Bibliog. no. 7) where it aroused considerable interest. Hill approached R. & J. Beck Ltd and had a numberof experimental lens designed before camera was marketed by them. The camera went under a numberof names; the 'Robin Hill camera’, ‘Hill's cloud camera’, 'Whole-sky camera’etc. It is probably best known, however, as the fish-eye camera.

He hopedto be able to use the camera ona visit to the Dutch East Indies planned for 1931 and wished to havetheofficial sanction of the Dutch meteorologicaloffice. Arising from the visit C. Schoute suggested practical possibilities for the lens as a drift measuring device and rangefinder. He suggested a patent be taken out and the German company Zeiss approached to manufacture the apparatus.
