Reissner was born into a wealthy Berlin family that benefited from an inheritance from his great-uncle on his mother's side. As a young engineering graduate, he spent a year in the U.S. working as a draftsman. After this year, he broadened his academic interests to include physics. As a young

Curiously, it was this engineer, rather than a physicist or mathematician, who first solved
Einstein's equation for the metric of a charged point mass. His closed-form solution, rediscovered by several other physicists within the next few years, is now called the

Before World War I, Reissner designed the first successful all-metal aircraft, the
Reissner Canard (or Ente) with both skin and structure made of metal. This was constructed with assistance from
