Once I started performing I knew that's what I wanted to do with my life. But you have to work really hard to be a performer.
From the beginning of the Radiation Laboratory, I have had the rare good fortune of being in the center of a group of men of high ability, enthusiastic and completely devoted to scientific pursuits.
You know, I was a community activist, so I'm used to standing out in front of an elected official's office and protesting.
