It was 1959 when John Forbes Nash, Jr. started to hear voices in his head. The brilliant mathematician with "a beautiful mind" was committed to a psychiatric hospital. He was suffering from schizophrenia.
Forced to resign his position at M.I.T., John Nash appeared to be a shell of his former self. His former colleagues could no longer communicate with him. He wandered, sometimes barefoot, through the corridors of Princeton University's Fine Hall. It was a place where he had once been a formidable mathematical genius. Alicia Nash, his wife, divorced him in 1963.
Yet, through all the years of mental delusion and turmoil, John Nash hung on - to his wife, to his university, and to himself. Despite their divorce, Alicia took care of him. Theirs is a story of love, support and triumph. In this story behind the movie "A Beautiful Mind," meet the real John Nash. Visit his university. Meet his professors.
