Einstein got a Bachelors in 1900, a PhD in 1905 and was a lecturer at Bern by 1908, he held a series of prestigious positions over the following 20 years. After he emmigrated to America in '30s he worked at Princeton. I don't know how anyone could assert that Einstein wasn't a professional physicist.
- ohduran 7y agoa PhD in 1905 means that he got it around the time he published his 4 articles in Annalen der Physik. I understand your point, but by the time he wrote the relativity theory he was, by the standards of this article, an amateur.
