Bonus - The Art & Science of Star Trek

Three "Treksperts" on the making of one of entertainment’s greatest franchises. They discuss the show’s portrayal of science and technology, its influence on real-world advancements—from Motorola's flip phones to the concept of warp drive—and its trailblazing shift from episodic to serial storytelling. They also explore the role of science advisories in making the show plausible, and how Star Trek modeled inclusivity and challenged societal stereotypes. Guests: Mark A. Altman — showrunner of the TV series “Pandora,” writer/producer of the film “Free Enterprise,” and co-author of the bestselling “The Fifty-Year Mission: The Complete, Uncensored, Unauthorized Oral History of Star Trek: The First 25 Years.” Mark is also the co-host and producer of the podcast, “Inglorious Treksperts.” André Bormanis — television producer, screenwriter, and author of “Star Trek: Science Logs.”  André was the science consultant on “Star Trek: The Next Generation”; “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine”; “Star Trek: Voyager”; and “Star Trek: Enterprise.” André serves as science consultant and writer-producer on The Orville (Fox). He holds a BS in Physics. Tom Vitale (moderator, Williams ’86) — Tom headed programming and production at the SciFi Channel for 20 years. He is currently a television and film writer/producer specializing in science fiction, fantasy, and horror/supernatural. He runs Vital Signs Entertainment and is the co-creator with Mark Altman of “Pandora.” Recorded over Zoom in March 2021.

Episode 9 - Building a Better World

The final episode in this series features the story of Deo Niyizonkiza, founder and CEO of Village Health Works [https://www.villagehealthworks.org/], an organization that provides healthcare and education services in the small East African country of Burundi. Deo was the the subject of the 2009 book “Strength in What Remains [https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/92354/strength-in-what-remains-by-tracy-kidder/]” by Tracy Kidder, which was hailed by the New York Times and many others. He received an honorary doctorate from Williams College in 2013. In 2019, the Williams Club hosted a special evening with Deo, in which he talked about his incredible story from refugee to peacemaker and healthcare leader. Village Health Works continues to thrive today; recently, their new hospital was officially opened by the President of Burundi. Deo was joined in the conversation by Village Health Works clinical program director Dr. Cathryn Christensen (Williams ‘01).

Episode 8 - The Making and Unmaking of a Racist

An extraordinary conversation about racism with Charles Dew (Williams ’58), Professor of American History, Emeritus, at Williams College and the author of the memoir, “The Making of a Racist: A Southerner Reflects on Family, History, and the Slave Trade [https://www.upress.virginia.edu/title/5016/].” At this Williams Club event from 2017, he talks about growing up in the Jim Crow South and how a liberal arts education transformed the way he sees the world. He’s joined by Hugh Price, Amherst alumnus and former President of the National Urban League, an historic civil rights organization. *Apologies for the audio glitches that appear in a few isolated places in the recording.* Established in 1913, the Williams Club is an alumni club in mid-town Manhattan with membership open to alumni, family, undergrads, faculty & staff of 35 affiliate institutions, including all of the schools in the NESCAC conference.

Episode 7 - Desert Borderland

Behind each political border is a story. Why does this river or that mountain range divide two countries? Why do some borders seem to run willy-nilly through deserts, cutting communities in two? Behind these questions are tales of conquest, migration and ultimately power. Matt Ellis (Williams '03) has spent years studying these questions in the Middle East. Professor Ellis is Chair of Middle Eastern & International Affairs at Sarah Lawrence College. In his book, "Desert Borderland [https://www.sup.org/books/title/?id=27685]," Professor Ellis investigates the historical processes that transformed political identity in Egypt and Libya prior to World War I. In 2018, we welcomed Professor Ellis to the Williams Club to talk about  “Desert Borderland” with Magnus Bernhardsson, Williams College Professor of History and Chair of Global Studies. Established in 1913, the Williams Club is an alumni club in mid-town Manhattan with membership open to alumni, family, undergrads, faculty & staff of 35 affiliate institutions, including all of the schools in the NESCAC conference.
