- wincy 4y agoWasn’t he American?
- cgriswald 4y agoHe was ethnically Serbian, was born in (what is now) Croatia, moved to the United States in his late 20s, and gained his United States citizenship in his mid-30s.
- ch_sm 4y agoYou could argue he was Austrian, because Croatia was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time and he attended the University of Graz, Austria. I guess many people would like to call him a fellow countryman.
