My Erdős number

My vanity got the best of me and I calculated my Erdős number: at most 5. I got some help in finding the shortest path, which is as follows:

0. Paul Erdős → 1. Johannes H. Hattingh
1. Johannes H. Hattingh → 2. Andrew R. Plummer
2. Andrew R. Plummer → 3. Benjamin Munson
3. Benjamin Munson → 4. Ann R. Bradlow
4. Ann R. Bradlow →→ 5. Lauren M. Ackerman
