Seattle native Ken Jennings was an anonymous software engineer in 2004 when he unexpectedly became a nerd folk icon by winning 74 consecutive games of the quiz show JEOPARDY! Now a New York Times bestselling author, Jennings will discuss his latest book about quirky cartographic obsessives, Maphead, and host a live trivia contest—come play along! In honor of the Seattle Center’s anniversary, questions will cover the past half-century of arts, music and letters. Ken will personally select prizes for the winners and whisper words of comfort and understanding for the losers.
