Author Talk with Illah Nourbakhsh In-Person
Carnegie Mellon Professor Illah Nourbakhsh has spent fifty years navigating the space between cultures in conflict, enduring adversity, becoming resilient and successful, and yet, still failing to satisfy the question: "Where do I belong?" Drawing from his experience as an Iranian-born immigrant, Nourbakhsh shares his journey from the Iranian Revolution to the AI revolution, electric car races to the dot-com boom, and National Geographic to NASA. His recently-published book Turn Left: Spinning an Intercultural Identity opens up the essential conversation of identity, community engagement, and the power of robotics.
Copies of Turn Left will be available for purchase and signing after the program. This program will be held in the Oak Room.
