Albert’s oldest son, Hans Albert, grew up to become a distinguished science professor in California. Occasionally he visited with his father. Eduard, born in 1910, the younger son—whom Albert nicknamed “Tedel,” which means “little bear”—was gifted in music and literature but suffered from mental illness. After his mother’s death, Eduard lived in a hospital for the rest of his life.

Albert once congratulated his son Hans Albert—whose birthday he never remembered—for being just like himself when it came to family. “It is a joy for me to have a son who has inherited the main trait of my personality: the ability to rise above mere existence by sacrificing oneself through the years for an impersonal goal. This is the best, indeed the only way in which we can make ourselves independent from personal fate and from other human beings.” Albert never questioned his decision to choose scientific discovery over family.
