Abstract
The University of Arizona is uniquely fortunate to include both the Optical Sciences Center and Steward Observatory, where a great deal of work has been done in the past and is continuing today in the areas of optical design, fabrication, and testing. These organizations, literally across the street from each other, have over the years cooperated on numerous telescope and related projects. Interferometry has played a key role in the fabrication of the optics for these projects and has been an area of constant development as requirements for these optics have become more stringent.
