I am doing a project on a famous American mathematician, but the 
problem is, I can't think of any!  There are lots of English, 
German, Greek, and French mathematicians that I can think of or 
find, but no one American really sticks out in anyone's mind!

Hi there!  I'd recommend the St. Andrew's Math History page, 
located at 

http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/   

From this page, you can get to a birthplace map.  You can also 
go directly to a listing of some American mathematicians.  
That page is

Good luck with your report and let us know how it goes!
