Richard Garwin is a physicist who received his Ph.D. in 1949 from the University of Chicago under Enrico Fermi. On Fermi's invitation, Garwin went to Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1950. At this time he was appointed to a faculty position at the University of Chicago. According to Edward Teller, Garwin was instrumental in creating the first hydrogen bomb. In 1952, Garwin joined IBM's Watson Laboratory at Columbia University in a research capacity (until 1970), while consulting at Los Alamos and for the United States government on issues of military technology and arms control. He has also been an adjunct professor in physics at Columbia University, and a professor of public policy at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
Publications, reports, and symposia proceedings collected and donated from Richard L. Garwin's personal collection. Includes reports from his time with JASON, and publications on subjects such as nuclear arms, disarmament, global strategies for nuclear technology with Soviet Union, Russia, the United Kingdom, North Korea, and India, arms control in space, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) publications, data security and declassification, energy policy, science policy and the United States government, symposia proceedings on aneutronic energy, nuclear war and space and climate change.
