It's kind of fun to do- and fairly easy with Wikipedia. Here's mine:

Me (1996) <- Iwan Alexander (1981) <- David Wollkind (1968) <- Lee Segel (1959) <- C. C. Lin (1944) <- Theodor von Karman (1908) <- Ludwig Prandtl (1900) <- August Foeppl <- Christian Otto Mohr

No wonder I have a knack for fluids/continuum mechanics... it's in my blood!
