This show has a personal touch for me because I was a casual friend of Robert Oppenheimer's son, Peter, in Santa Fe back in the day. As you might imagine he was a conflicted young man. On one hand he was very proud of his father, on the other he was haunted by the legacy of the bomb. A mutual friend of ours was Jan Kerouac, the estranged daughter of Jack, a haunted young lady as well . Young people whose lives couldn't escape their parents shadow, hard drinking and drugging was how they coped. Sadly Jan died in the mid 90s of kidney failure, I don't know what became of Peter.
