This article is one in a series of papers from the Symposium on the Mystery of Severe Storms: A Tribute to the Work of T. Theodore Fujita. It reviews Fujita's vast contributions to the understanding of tornadoes and tornadic thunderstorms and briefly summarizes a few complementary studies on these t opics by other authors. This article also reviews Dr. Fujita's applications of photogrammetry to the study of thunderstorms and tornadoes. Comments ab out Ted Fujita's influence on the authors' careers are interspersed through out the paper and in the acknowledgments.
