Excerpt: Antony Garrett Lisi (born January 24, 1968), who uses the name Garrett by preference, is an American theoretical physicist and adventure sports enthusiast. Lisi works as an independent researcher without an academic position. He is a strong proponent of balance in life, in his case between scientific research and enjoyment of the outdoors. Lisi is known for "An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything," a paper proposing a unified field theory based on the E8 Lie group, combining particle physics with Einstein's theory of gravitation. Born in Los Angeles and raised in San Diego, California, Lisi graduated the Cate School (south of Santa Barbara, California) in 1986. He learned to surf in San Diego, where he traveled between surf breaks in an old VW Bus. Lisi went on to receive two B.S. degrees with highest honors in physics and mathematics from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1991. Lisi received a Ph.D. in physics from the University of California, San Diego in 1999. After getting his Ph.D., Lisi left academia and moved to Maui - expressing his dissatisfaction with the state of theoretical physics: I got my PhD and looked at my options. I love differential geometry, general relativity, and particle physics. But the only options available then for a postdoc in those combined areas were in string theory, and I thought string theory was overly speculative. There are many really impressive aspects of strings - anomaly cancelation in partic.
