Explanation:
2020 has been an ‘interesting’ year! International collaborative organisations like CODATA have had to adapt to circumstances and make even more use of online, collaborative technologies and virtual meetings (which was already quite intense). The absence of face-to-face meetings has not limited our productivity – we may even have done more, and some of these activities are listed below.
But this is certainly a time to look forward to a 2021 in which we will articulate and apply the lessons of the pandemic for FAIR data and Open Science! We will doubtless not go back to the previous ’normal’, our activities and ways of collaborating and meeting will evolve. But there are some important events and activities to look forward to!
Looking forward to 2021!

Answer:
Longfellow was born in Portland, Maine, which was then still part of Massachusetts. He studied at Bowdoin College and became a professor at Bowdoin and later at Harvard College after spending time in Europe. His first major poetry collections were Voices of the Night (1839) and Ballads and Other Poems (1841). He retired from teaching in 1854 to focus on his writing, and he lived the remainder of his life in the Revolutionary War headquarters of George Washington in Cambridge, Massachusetts. His first wife Mary Potter died in 1835 after a miscarriage. His second wife Frances Appleton died in 1861 after sustaining burns when her dress caught fire. After her death, Longfellow had difficulty writing poetry for a time and focused on translating works from foreign languages. He died in 1882.
