After completing his undergraduate degree at
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he became a graduate student at
Stanford University.[1] There he received his Ph.D. in 1964 with a thesis supervised by
Samuel Karlin.[4] Samuels joined in 1964 the faculty of
Purdue University and retired there in 2003 as professor emeritus of statistics and mathematics.[1] He did research on various topics in probability theory and its applications, dynamic optimization, and disclosure risk assessment for
statistical microdata.[5]
