Fridtjof Nansen
Born in Norway in 1861, Fridtjof Nansen was a polymath who achieved world-class distinction in polar exploration, neuroscience, oceanography, diplomacy, and humanitarian work. He led the first crossing of Greenland's interior (1888), set the farthest-north record of 86 degrees 14 minutes during the Fram expedition (1893-96), and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1922 for his work as the League of Nations' High Commissioner for Refugees.
