About the author

In 1961, Daniel Ellsberg, a consultant to the White House, drafted Secretary Robert McNamara's plans for nuclear war. Later he leaked the Pentagon Papers. A senior fellow of the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, he was the author of Secrets and the subject of the Oscar-nominated documentary The Most Dangerous Man in America. He was also a key figure in Steven Spielberg's film about the Pentagon Papers, The Post. Through numerous media interviews, he robustly communicated his lifelong concerns about the dangers of nuclear weapons and wars of intervention until his death in 2023.
