There are some biographical glimpses of Hugh Everett's family life in his son's autobiography, "Things the Grandchildren Should Know" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Things_the_Grandchildren_Shoul...

The son, Mark Oliver Everett, is better known as E, the leader of the Eels.




I highly recommend the documentary on Hugh Everett, hosted by his son, Mark:

It's an odd thing to have a bio piece on what amounts to a "failed" phycist — at least while he was alive. Not all of life's stories have happy endings.
