How Did You Become a Nuclear Engineer?

I was smitten very early on with a kind of nuclear bug. I was the first person to take a book out of the high school library by Herman Kahn entitled on thermonuclear war. It's, it, in a way guided me through my undergraduate focus on foreign policy and national relations. When I began teaching I focused on that when I was teaching something other than general survey courses. And so I ultimately ended up doing something called Z division which is consulting at Lawrence Livermore labs.
