Womenheimer: Men Will Take You Only So Far... ft. Theoretical Physicist Tomasz Taylor

  • Summary

  • Theory will take you only so far? MEN will take you only so far! Joined by my particle physicist father, we dissect Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and some of the many women involved in the Manhattan Project that the movie fails to mention including Mary Frankel, Elizabeth Riddle Graves, Naomi Livesay, Maria Goeppert Mayer, and C.S Wu. But before that, we break down all the men on the screen and the ways in which the movie ignores the Trinity Test's impact on native populations. From babies to blue jeans to espionage, we discuss family life at Los Alamos, and (however surprising to the modern audience) how many women look back on their war-time at Los Alamos as the best years of their lives.
