Robert Jay Daverman (born 28 September 1941) is an American topologist.
Daverman was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on 28 September 1941. He earned a bachelor's degree in 1963 from Calvin College and pursued doctoral study under R. H. Bing at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. After completing his thesis Locally Fenced 2-spheres in S3 in 1967, Daverman began teaching at the University of Tennessee–Knoxville.[1] While on the Knoxville faculty, Daverman served on the American Mathematical Society's Committee on Science Policy.[2] By the time he was selected as one of the inaugural fellows of the AMS in 2012, Daverman had gained emeritus status.[3]
