    Walter Massey - Tirelessly Exercising the Mind
    2025/02/19
    By age 16, Walter Massey was already in his first year at Morehouse College and ready to prove he could solve any mathematical equation he was given. During this episode, you'll hear how this passionate thinker from Mississippi, turned one car ride during the Jim Crow Era into global acclaim as a physicist. Born in Hattiesburg, Walter Massey planted deep roots in the Land of Lincoln, as a professor at the University of Chicago and Director of Argonne National Laboratory. But it was the Civil Rights Movement that drove Mr. Massey to join the faculty at the University of Illinois as a mentor for Black Students in 1968. He's served as Director of the National Science Foundation, as President of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and currently chairs the board of the Giant Magellan Telescope Project in Chile. Our guest host for this Lincoln Laureates conversation is award-winning broadcast journalist, Ron Claiborne.

    Jerry Reinsdorf - Being True To Your Word
    2024/12/30
    During this episode of the Lincoln Laureates, we’ll hear from the son of a sewing machine salesman, with a deep passion for sports. This boy from Brooklyn has made Illinois his home for more than six decades. Jerry Reinsdorf’s journey has taken him from tax attorney to real estate investor, to seven-time champion as the owner of the Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Bulls. In this conversation, he uncovers the myth that centers on "breaking up" the Bulls dynasty. When the Chicago White Sox won the World Series in 2005, Mr. Reinsdorf became one of only three owners to claim world titles in two different sports. His philanthropy has funded reading programs across the entire Chicago Public School system, and provided more than $2 million dollars to reconstruct the Chicago Park District’s baseball and softball fields. Jerry Reinsdorf is a graduate of George Washington University and the Northwestern University School of Law. He received the Order of Lincoln Medallion in 1997. Our guest host for this Lincoln Laureates conversation is award-winning broadcast journalist, Chris Bury.
