Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard P. Feynman (1918–88) was a towering scientific genius who could make himself understood by anyone and who became as famous for the wit and wisdom of his popular lectures and writings as for his fundamental contributions to science. "The Quotable Feynman" is a treasure-trove of this revered and beloved scientist’s most profound, provocative, humorous, and memorable quotations on a wide range of subjects edited by his daughter, Michelle Feynman, who discussed her father’s life and legacy. In addition, physicist Seamus Blackey brought Feynman’s van, newly restored and recently featured on The Big Bang Theory, so guests could get their photographs taken with the famous vehicle featuring Feynman diagrams.

Our special guest at this salon was be: Dr. Leonard Mlodinow, physicist and author of "Feynman’s Rainbow: A Search for Beauty in Physics and in Life" and "The Upright Thinkers: The Human Journey from Living in Trees to Understanding the Cosmos."
