<W. Marshall Leach, Jr.> was an <electrical engineer> whose work included audio electronics, <electroacoustics>, electronic instrumentation and low-noise circuit design. His research and teaching connected audio <power> amplifiers with loudspeaker systems and acoustic measurement.<Curriculum Vitae of W. Marshall Leach, Jr.>[Experience Summary and Fields of Interest]{ref}
His notes <The Junction Diode by W. Marshall Leach, Jr.> develop the relationship between the physical junction and the circuit models used to analyze it. That connection is useful in audio engineering as well: a model must capture the relevant device behaviour while remaining simple enough to reason about bias, signal variation and distortion.<The Junction Diode by W. Marshall Leach, Jr.>[Sections 1.2–1.3 and subsequent diode models]{ref}
