Major steps in our knowledge of high redshift galaxies and quasars were made possible by the synergy between the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and 8–10 m class optical-near infrared ground-based telescopes. The galaxy samples were built from very deep, pencil-beam surveys with the HST and deep, wider area surveys undertaken with ground-based facilities.
