Abstract: I give my view of the early history of the discovery of hyperbolic structures on knot complements from my early work on representations of knot groups into matrix groups to my meeting with William Thurston in 1976. (This article was written by Robert Riley about ten years before his death in 2000 and never submitted for publication. An explanation of why it is being published now and some information about Riley and this article is given in the article by Brin, Jones and Singerman which accompanies this article in this issue of the [journal | arxiv].)
