Garry Hunt was an SRC Fellow at the Atlas Computer Laboratory from 1966-67 and again from 1968-71. The period 1970-71 was spent at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology. At Atlas Garry worked with Ian Grant FRS and in Oxford with the Department of Atmospheric Physics with Dr (now Sir) John Houghton CBE, FRS. Elisabeth Gill joined Garry as a programming assistant in 1968.

During Ian and Garry's very successful work relationship, they developed the Discrete Space Theory of Radiative Transfer which was published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society and remains a landmark in the subject. In September 1970 they organised a major international conference on the Interdisciplinary Aspects of Radiative Transfer at St Edmund Hall Oxford which was published in 1971 in the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer (JQSRT). There is a picture of the attendees in this journal, which includes Professor S Chandrasekhar FRS who later gained the Nobel Prize for Physics, and who opened the conference. The guests are a Who's Who of the subject at that time.
