Martin Hellman on the Invention of Public-Key Cryptography
At the DISI conference last December, Martin Hellman gave a lecture on the invention of public-key cryptography. A video is online (it’s hard to find, search for his name), along with PowerPoint slides.
(Unfortunately, the video isn’t set up for streaming; in order to view the it, you’ll have to download the ten files, then use a fairly recent version of WinZip to concatenate the files.)
EDITED TO ADD (3/26): Now on Google Video.

It also works under unix: Download all 10 parts, then “cat hellman.* >all.zip”, then unzip all.zip. I used “UnZip 5.52 of 28 February 2005, by Ubuntu. Original by Info-ZIP”. You will get a warning that tells you to ignore warnings, and a output file that’s ok.
