Albert Einstein was a renowned physicist and leader in the field of modern physics. Some of his most important contributions included the photoelectric effect, special relativity, and mass-energy equivalence expressed by the iconic equation E=mc2. However, he was a very humble and modest man in his private life, with a preference for simplicity over fame or fortune. While his scientific works changed our understanding of the universe, he also tried to use his public profile to promote humanist ideas of peace, disarmament, and social justice.
