About the Event
What was it like to live in WWII Los Alamos, New Mexico, where the world's first atomic bomb was built? What were the considerations that went into using the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August of 1945? How did the use of the bomb influence nuclear policy after the war and to this day? Inspired by the research for her historical novel, Hill of Secrets, set in WWII Los Alamos, author Galina Vromen will bring alive that momentous period and discuss its impact on nuclear proliferation today.
