Remembering Richard Garwin: A Legacy of Nuclear Security Advocacy

Richard Garwin, a renowned physicist and long-time board member of the Union of Concerned Scientists, passed away at the age of 97. His contributions to the field of nuclear security and arms control have left a lasting impact on the global community.

Throughout his seven-decade career, Garwin was deeply involved in advising the government on a wide range of security issues. His commitment to working in both the classified and unclassified worlds set him apart from his peers, allowing him to influence policy decisions and shape international efforts to reduce the threat posed by nuclear weapons.

Garwin’s expertise was instrumental in producing several reports for the UCS, including the technical report “Countermeasures.” This report highlighted the vulnerabilities of the planned US defense system against nuclear-armed, long-range missiles, shedding light on critical security issues that needed to be addressed.

Despite his busy schedule, Garwin always made time to respond to queries from his colleagues. His quick and insightful responses were a testament to his dedication to the cause of nuclear security. His willingness to share his knowledge and engage with others in the field was a hallmark of his character.

Garwin’s advocacy for a more restrained nuclear policy, including refraining from using nuclear weapons first during a conflict, was a cornerstone of his work. His efforts to eliminate launch-on-warning options and reduce the risk of accidental nuclear war demonstrated his commitment to promoting peace and stability in a volatile world.

Aside from his professional achievements, Garwin was known for his quirky sense of humor and love for desserts. His ability to multitask seamlessly, whether fixing a wobbly table or engaging in complex policy discussions, was a testament to his remarkable intellect and wit.
