Bob Knowlton is project head of the photon laboratory and was determined to produce work that would put him ahead in his career. As the leader of the team, he was known for staying at the lab and working late, long after the rest of his team had gone home. Knowlton’s boss, Dr. Jerrold, told him during his interview, "The person who produces gets ahead in this outfit," and "The sky’s the limit for people who can produce!" It seems that message really stuck with Knowlton.
