Presented by David D. Levine
Nikola Tesla was a genius, a visionary, a financial failure, and a very difficult man. His near-superhuman capacities for imagination and visualization enabled him to create technologies never before imagined, ushered him into New York’s most exclusive circles, and also led to his descent into destitution and crackpottery. Come hear the amazing true story of one of the steampunk world’s most fascinating and controversial real-life figures.
