Watch Oppenheimer (2023) before August 16, then join our discussion led by retired physicist, Alan Wolsky.

Oppenheimer, the highly acclaimed movie, introduces one man’s life and those who were important to him. Their decisions, personal and political, affect us still. Alan Wolsky looks forward to your questions and facilitating the discussion prompted by the film. What intrigues you and what puzzles you? Let's talk about both.

About Alan Wolsky:
Like others who grew up in post WWII America, Alan Wolsky remembers the fear of nuclear attack, McCarthyism, and how one fed the other. Later, Wolsky studied physics and then worked at Argonne National Lab, where he managed projects, evaluated others, and became familiar with parts of the US Department of Energy as well as similar agencies in other countries.
