This short report is intended to give a brief overview of my research on the properties of the liquid surface. The phrase "liquid surface" in the last sentence is deliberately vague. Of course, the properties of the liquid-solid, the liquid-vapor, and the liquid-supported monolayer interfaces are not the same. Nor should we expect the several kinds of interfaces with other media of atomic, molecular, and metallic liquids to be the same. I will focus attention on the study of the liquid-vapor interface of metals and alloys (with a brief aside on the influence of a hydrocarbon monolayer on the atomic structure of the supporting liquid metal) because it illustrates nicely the kinds of advances that can be made when both modem theory and modern experimental technology are combined to solve problems, and because a number of the results obtained are very different from what was expected only a few years ago.
