It is a great honor for me to receive this honor in the name of my professional model and idol, Kurt Lewin. I want to begin by sharing some of his unique history, which may not be widely known. Then, I will outline some of my research programs that were influenced by Lewin's pioneering thinking, experiments, and social applications. Part of my generalist orientation also comes from appreciation of the breadth of his interests. I shall describe my research on: social influence, time perspective, evil, shyness, everyday heroism, and using films to share social psychology to the general public (as in the new Hollywood movie of The Stanford Prison Experiment). I will also touch upon some of the curious coincidences in our life stories.
