    About J Robert Oppenheimer

    Born on April 22, 1904, J. Robert Oppenheimer was a theoretical physicist who worked on the Manhattan Project in 1942. Known for his arrogance, superciliousness, and secrecy, Oppenheimer was recruited by the CIA under Operation Paperclip and used his associations with Communist leftists to distance himself from his German origins.
