James Burke
Connections host to give final Distinguished Speaker Series talk of the season
Science historian, television host, and author James Burke fascinates audiences with his unique perspective on the process of innovation and how it causes people and institutions to change.
For over 40 years Burke has written, produced, directed, and hosted award-winning television series on the BBC, PBS, Discovery, and The Learning Channel.
He most famously created and hosted three seasons of the documentary series, Connections: An Alternative View of Change.
