File includes: a short memoir documenting Brady's early and graduate education during the 1920s and 1930s at Reed College with Lloyd E. Hunt, Frank E. Myers, and Lester C. Van Atta; at Indiana University; and at the University of California, Berkeley, with Ernest O. Lawrence, J. Robert Oppenheimer, Donald Cooksey, Franz Kuri, Norris Bradbury, John M. Williams, Stanley Ballard, Melba Phillips, Ralph Christianson, and Stanley Livingston. Brady describes his work on Lawrence's cyclotron at Berkeley before World War II and on the ruby maser at the Navy Electronics Laboratory in 1961. Respondents were asked to discuss their choice of physics as a profession and the course of their careers, their satisfactions and disappointments, the changes they saw in working and teaching conditions in the field, and relations within the community and with the society at large.
