His research primarily concerned Complex analysis, potential theory, and the relations of these ideas to approximation theory, harmonic analysis, integral geometry and partial differential equations.
[6] Zalcman was born in Kansas City, Missouri on June 9, 1943.
[6] Zalcman went on to receive his Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1968 under the supervision of Kenneth Myron Hoffman.
[8] In the theory of normal families, Zalcman's Lemma, which he used as part of his treatment of Bloch's principle, is named after him.
