CUNY TV is proud to re-broadcast newly digitized episodes of DAY AT NIGHT, the popular public television series hosted by the late James Day. Day was a true pioneer of public television: co-founder of KQED in San Francisco, president of WNET upon the merger of National Educational Television (NET) and television station WNDT/Channel 13, and most recently, Chairman of the CUNY TV Advisory Board. The series features fascinating interviews with notable cultural and political figures conducted in the mid 1970's. (Taped:05/08/74)

  • I wish my father was a scientist.

  • liking this day to night show. I enjoy they are old colour interviews. fascinating topics that are relevent. I enjoy watching. Anyone have similar shows worth digging up? Thanks

  • Teller's story as a young scientist is very similar to another Hungarian scientist, John Von Neumann, who also studied chemical engineering as a compromise with his father.

  • Are people responsible for their actions?

  • money does not buy science... money buys technology

  • @XKS99 Billions? Do you have any data supporting that remark? Maybe you should ask those sick by radiation, suffering and dying, those who felt and lived with the terror of the Cold War. It is easy to characterize me but stop and think what he promoted. The policies (he took part on supporting various military suggestions about the US policies), the tests, etc.

    I am not criticizing the inventor/physicist, I am criticizing his ideology.

    Read his bio and you will see. Peace.

  • @Synthelectric

    Hey human garbage: how about the billions saved by his inventions?

  • typical university hyper-professor... See the underlying arrogance...

    Dead now.. May God rest his soul as well as the souls of those killed by his inventions.

  • " man baut keine Massenvernichtungswaffen um damit zu Protzen, man baut sie um Massen zu vernichten " EdwardTeller

  • He was genius. However he shafted Oppenheimer. Unlike Oppenheimer he had no compunction about the invention or use of nuclear weapons.
