Edward Colin Cherry was a British cognitive scientist, born on June 23, 1914, and known for his work on focused auditory attention, particularly the cocktail party problem. He developed shadowing tasks to study how people attend to one conversation among many. His findings showed that little information is processed from unattended messages, leading to insights on auditory selection. He was educated at St Albans School and Northampton Polytechnic, served in radar research during WWII, and had a distinguished academic career at Imperial College London. He authored significant works on communication.
