Robert Klark Graham, an American millionaire optometrist, in order to save the world from the threat that genetic decline poses, tried to create a breed of highly gifted people and the result was ‘The Genius Sperm Bank’, officially named as the Repository for Germinal Choice.
He tried to keep his operations covert by using an underground bunker in the backyard of his ranch in San Diego, California.
Graham’s plan was to convince clever men to donate their sperms, which could be used for giving birth to extremely bright babies, and to this effect he even convinced three Nobel Prize winners to donate their sperms to him; but this backfired as one of the donors, William Shockley was a disrepute racist and Graham got accused of being a Nazi in the press.
A lot of people came to him even after the other two Nobel Prize winners deserted him, enabling his ‘Sperm Bank’ to continue its operation for nearly two decades and bringing to life 217 children!
