In this work, we provide a biographical sketch of John Dauns´ life, and briefly analyze the importance of some of his mathematical works. Some of his most important articles are quoted in some detail, particularly those which he co-authored with the Tulane Faculty of Mathematics within the last 50 years. We quote here some anecdotal stories about his life at Tulane, in order to shed some light on the complex, though interesting personality of one of the greatest algebraists of this century.
