CuriouSLy Human

aLan aLda HaS a genuine passion for

science. in The Human Spark, a fascinating

new three-part series, the acclaimed

actor and author brings his trademark

curiosity to conversations with leading

researchers searching for the vital

essence of humanity.

From ancient caves to cutting-edge

scientific laboratories, alda takes

viewers around the world—and deep

into the human brain—to understand

what makes us human.

“What makes this series unique,” says

executive producer Jared Lipworth, “is

that it crosses into so many different

scientific disciplines—archaeology,

primatology, neuroscience, behavioral

psychology, even philosophy. alan makes

connections that transcend the normally

narrow focus of the experts he meets.”

don’t miss the chance to “share

Your spark” by submitting art, photos,

videos, or essays about what you think

makes us uniquely human.

Major funding for The Human Spark is provided by the national science Foundation, the alfred p. sloan Foundation and the John templeton Foundation. additional funding is provided by the Cheryl and philip Milstein Family and the Winston Foundation.
