BMAV and Connie Morella Library invite all to attend this presentation on Zoom by Steve Crocker about his work as one of the inventors of the Internet.

As a student at UCLA, Crocker worked with other graduate students to put together the "Arpanet," the first piece of the Internet, and a trigger for the network era as we know it. Crocker's career has been spent in internet development and security, and was a Chair of the Board at ICANN, the non-profit that oversees the domain name system.  Crocker will discuss the origins of networking and historical milestones and will explain this complex topic in a very relatable way.  Learn more at the Internet Hall  of Fame.

Registration required with Montgomery County Public Libraries here.  Free and open to the public.
