As far as I think, there is no need to present who J. Robert Oppenheimer is.
Being such an influential figure in Modern History, Robert Oppenheimer attracts our attention towards his personality just as well via his rather exceptional phenotype. In given circumstances, as the newly premiered Oppenheimer Movie goes around all the Western World, it would be rather interesting to analyze what makes J. Robert Oppenheimer's phenotype stand out.

Firstly, Julius Robert Oppenheimer (ג'וליוס רוברט אופנהיימר in Hebrew ) is of Jewish ancestry (Ashkenazim). His family, as far as genealogical records can tell, is of full German-Jewish origin.

Thus, it will be useful to divide this analysis in two categories, as his physical features display both European and Middle-Eastern features, a very common phenomenon among Askenazi Jews :



“It is a profound and necessary truth that the deep things in science are not found because they are useful; they are found because it was possible to find them.”
“It is a profound and necessary truth that the deep things in science are not found because they are useful; they are found because it was possible to find them.”
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to enquire. We know that the wages of secrecy are corruption. We know that in secrecy error, undetected, will flourish and subvert.”
