Actor, Director and writer Alan Alda has had a lifelong interest in science. He hosted Scientific American Frontiers on PBS from 1993 to 2005. After interviewing hundreds of scientists, Mr. Alda became convinced that many researchers have wonderful stories to tell, but some need help in telling them. He played an important role in the creation of the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science, and has led workshops that use improvisational theater games to help scientists communicate more directly and personally.

This event is Free and open to the public. Tickets at the HOP box office. Overflow seating in Hood Auditorium.
