Ambassador Robert L. Gallucci was President of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation from 2009 until 2014, following his 13-year tenure as Dean of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. Previously, as Ambassador-at-Large and Special Envoy for the U.S. State Department, he dealt with the threats posed by the proliferation of ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction. He was chief U.S. negotiator during the North Korean nuclear crisis of 1994. Ambassador Gallucci will talk about the odd re-emergence of nuclear weapons as a critical factor shaping international security in the second decade of the 21st century.
