History and Overview 2015-07-17 v1

Abstract

This paper is divided into two sections. In the first I give reasons for strongly recommending reading some of Henkin's expository papers. In the second I describe Leon Henkin's work as a social activists in the field of mathematics education, as he labored in much of his career to boost the number of women and underrepresented minorities in the upper echelons of mathematics.
