talk he calls, “Saddam Hussein’s Secret Octopus and
other Tales of Science.” The event will be held at <strong>7:30
pm on Saturday, May 10th</strong> at MBL’s Lillie
Auditorium, 7 MBL Street, in Woods Hole,
Massachusetts.</p>
<p
style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:19px">Krulwich
is the co-host and co-creator (with Jad Abumrad) of
the cult-sensation <em>Radiolab</em>, the inventive
public radio program about big ideas in science. His
NPR blog, “Krulwich Wonders” features drawings,
cartoons and videos that illustrate hard-to-see
concepts in science.</p>
<p
style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:19px">Of
his talk, Krulwich says, “There are ways, lots of
ways, to take complex science stories, dense with
detail and nuance, and talk about them to a lay
audience. Not dumbing them down, not ignoring the
hard parts, but inventing ways to make them
understandable. I’ll describe techniques I’ve used
on <em>Radiolab</em>, on TV and on the web, sharing
the ones I’m proudest of, and some of my biggest,
most embarrassing bloopers. Come hear about
Hussein’s octopus, dating squid, and the day a
B-flat got away and hid out on a stairwell in Woods
Hole.”</p>
<p
style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:19px">APM’s
Executive Director, Jay Allison, says, “I don’t know
anyone more curious and just plain fun than Robert
Krulwich. I guarantee that if you come hear him
talk, you’ll leave the auditorium more curious and
ready for fun yourself.”</p>
<p
style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:19px">Krulwich
earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in history from
Oberlin College and a law degree from Columbia
University and has been awarded numerous Emmys, as
well as the DuPont and George Polk Award, among
others.</p>
