He was cited his contributions to the science and art which have made possible a transatlantic telephone cable. The citation also noted his wise leadership of a great industrial and his outstanding services to the government of his country. Buckley spent most of his professional career with the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T). Early in his career, he was an active participant in laboratory research on vacuum-tube amplifiers and was the inventor of an ionization manometer. In his later years, he became a research manager and served for a decade as president of the Bell Telephone Laboratories.
