Abstract
Professor Zukoski's technical influence, generosity and inspiration to a series of fire safety engineering science doctoral candidates from the University of California at Berkeley are chronicled. Two of his areas of expertise are emphasized: gravity currents and pool fire plumes. It is concluded that he has had an unusually significant impact as a nurturing scientist.
