Januar 1997 in , Pennsylvania, Vereinigte Staaten) war ein britisch-US-amerikanischer Pflanzenphysiologe und Mikrobiologe. Er ist bekannt für Arbeiten über Pflanzenhormone. Insbesondere isolierte er Auxin (Indol-3-essigsäure, 1935 mit Koepfli) und klärte dessen chemische Struktur. Thimann studierte Chemie und Biochemie am Imperial College London, wo er auch promovierte, und an der Universität Graz. Er lehrte an der Universität London und war ab 1930 am Caltech als Instructor für Biochemie und Bakteriologie. Ab 1935 war er Professor an der Harvard University. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg arbeitete er für die Operations Research Group der US Navy in Washington, D.C. und Pearl Harbor. 1946 bis 1950 war er Direktor der Biologischen Laboratorien der Harvard-Universität und war dort ab 1962 Higgins Professor für Biologie. 1965 wechselte er an die neu gegründete University of California, Santa Cruz und war maßgeblich an deren Aufbau beteiligt. Er war bis 1972 erster Provost des Crown College der Universität und baute ein Arboretum und eine botanische Sammlung auf. 1989 zog er nach Haverford in Pennsylvania, um näher bei seinen drei Töchtern zu wohnen. Er war Mitglied der National Academy of Sciences, der American Academy of Arts and Sciences, der American Philosophical Society und der Académie des sciences sowie mehrfacher Ehrendoktor (Harvard University, Universität Basel, Universität Clermont-Ferrand, Brown University). 1960 wurde er Mitglied der Deutschen Akademie der Naturforscher Leopoldina. 1982 erhielt er den Balzan-Preis. Seine Tochter Vivianne Nachmias war Professorin für Zellbiologie an der University of Pennsylvania, seine Tochter Karen Romer Dekanin an der Brown University. Er spielte Klavier und gründete eine Kammermusikgruppe. (de) Kenneth Vivian Thimann (August 5, 1904 – January 15, 1997) was an English-American plant physiologist and microbiologist known for his studies of plant hormones, which were widely influential in agriculture and horticulture. He isolated and determined the structure of auxin, the first known plant hormone. He spent most of his early career (1935–1965) at Harvard University, and his later career (1965 - ) at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Thimann was born in Ashford, England. He studied chemistry and biochemistry at Imperial College, University of London (earning a B.Sc. and a Ph.D.) and also received a diploma from the University of Graz. After several years teaching at the University of London, Thimann moved to the California Institute of Technology in 1930. In 1935, he joined the Biology department of Harvard University. He authored an influential book on plant hormones, Phytohormones, in 1937 (co-authored with F. W. Went). He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1938. Thimann became director of Harvard's in 1946, a position he held until 1950. He was elected to the United States National Academy of Sciences in 1948. In 1955 he wrote The Life of Bacteria, an influential book on microbiology. He was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 1959. From 1962 until leaving Harvard in 1965, Thimann was the Higgins Professor of Biology. Thimann moved to University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) in 1965—the year of its founding—to become the first provost of Crown College. At UCSC, he was largely responsible for building the science departments of the new university. He also played a central role in fostering the UCSC Arboretum and its botanical collection. After retiring as provost in 1972, Thimann remained at UCSC until 1989, when he moved to Haverford, Pennsylvania. In 1977, he wrote Hormone Action in the Whole Life of Plants. He won the Balzan Prize in 1982 in recognition of his contributions to botany.
