About this listen

 “Name Your Price” said the Hollywood Lawyer to Professor Eagleman when he called back for the second time to entice him to come to Universal Studios for a trial. Joe Eagleman, tells in this autobiography about this unique experience as well as many other captivating aspects of his journey from a kid on the farm to a professor in demand in Hollywood.
Doctor Eagleman’s early education was in a one-room rural grade school. His invention of an artificial tornado that extended from the ceiling of his laboratory at the University of Kansas resulted in local interest as well as international filming from a news crew from Japan. It later became the subject of a lawsuit between Universal Studios in Hollywood and the Volvo Company. After he was told by Universal Studios to "Name your price" he was called to Hollywood for this successful lawsuit. A 50-foot version of his tornado was the main attraction in the Twister Building at Universal Studios Park in Orlando Florida from 1998 to 2015. Another copy of his tornado was created with his help by Ned Kahn at the Exploratorium in San Francisco where it continues to attract viewers and has for many decades.
This autobiography tells of his early life on the farm as the 11th of 12 children who was told by an older brother that he would never amount to anything. His elementary education was in a one-room rural grade school where he had to deal with a bully on the playground. This book includes his development as a scientist, artist, musician, luthier, marksman, taxidermist and other endeavors. His unique journey to becoming a Professor and Research Scientist is described. His career resulted in one who had experiments on Skylab and who influenced many thousands of students through his teaching and books and who made national changes to tornado safety guidelines. He initiated and developed the program in Atmospheric Science at KU that has now grown into a full department where Joe Eagleman Scholarships are given to worthy students. His journey also includes being a Christian, Elder, husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Natural Disaster
