Description

Christopher Nolan's summer blockbuster "Oppenheimer" brought renewed focus to the moral conflict faced by the father of the atomic bomb. But before there was a movie, there was a seminal biography. Kai Bird, author of "American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer," joins Chuck to detail the physicist's background — and what similarities he shared with former President Jimmy Carter.
