Watch Live: The Martian's Daughter With Marina von Neumann Whitman, Professor of Business Administration and Public Policy, University of Michigan Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 2:00pm to 3:30pm
One of the five Hungarian scientific geniuses dubbed "The Martians," by their colleagues, John von Neumann was often hailed as the greatest mathematician of the twentieth century, and the greatest scientist since Einstein. Von Neumann was a key figure in the Manhattan Project, the inventor of game theory, the pioneering developer of the modern stored-program electronic computer, and, right up to his death, an adviser to the top echelons of the American military establishment. In The Martian's Daughter, his daughter, Marina von Neumann Whitman, explores how the cosmopolitan environment in which she was immersed, the demanding expectations of her parents, and her own struggles to emerge from the shadow of a larger-than-life parent shaped her life and work.
