We will learn about interesting characters each week: 1. The two men who started the A.I. wave of our future - Sam Altman and Jensen Huang, 2-3. Frank Sinatra - his whole life and great music in two sessions, 4. The "Wide Awakes" movement of 1859 and connections to Lincoln and the American Civil War, 5-7. Alexander Hamiliton, 8. Johnny Hartman - a really great singer of the 1947-1963 period of classic easy listening, discussing his life and his music (as an African American singer, he had to be very careful where he sang and how he performed). David looks forward to sharing his research with Lifelong Learners.
