Don Nelson Page FRSC (born December 31, 1948) is an American-born Canadian theoretical physicist at the University of Alberta, Canada.

[1][2][3] Page's work focuses on quantum cosmology and theoretical gravitational physics, and he is noted for being a doctoral student of Stephen Hawking, who was at Caltech during 1974-1975, in addition to publishing several journal articles with him.

[4][5] Page got his BA at William Jewell College in the United States in 1971, attaining an MS in 1972 and a PhD in 1976 at Caltech.

[8][9] For many researchers, deriving the Page curve is synonymous with solving the famous black hole information paradox.

"[12] In the same post he criticises William Lane Craig's Kalam Cosmological Argument, saying that it "is highly dubious metaphysically, depending on contingent intuitions [i.e. the first premise] we have developed from living in a universe with relatively simple laws of physics and with a strong thermodynamic arrow of time."
