Speaker: Tom Reed, USC Viterbi alumnus
Talk Title: Iran's Nuclear End Game
Abstract: Join us as USC Viterbi alum Tom Reed discusses his new book, "The Tehran Triangle," which infers one possible end game for Iran's current nuclear ambitions. Please RSVP to mrschust@usc.edu or (213) 740-4880.
Biography: Tom Reed began his career doing physics at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. In Edward Teller's words, "Tom Reed was one of Livermore's most creative designers of thermonuclear devices." Two of his designs were fired over the Pacific in 1962.
Earlier he had graduated from Cornell as an engineer, then from graduate school at USC. During the Ford and Carter years, Reed served as Secretary of the Air Force and Director of the National Reconnaissance Office.
With the end of the Cold War, Reed turned his attention to documenting the history of those times in his "At the Abyss: An Insider's History of the Cold War," followed by "The Nuclear Express: A Political History of the Bomb and Its Proliferation." His new history-based thriller, "The Tehran Triangle" infers one possible end game for Iran's current nuclear ambitions.
