Katherine Oppenheimer was one of the many children born during the Manhattan Project in Los Alamos, New Mexico, during World War II. When her father, J. Robert Oppenheimer, became the Director of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, the family moved to New Jersey. Toni was 3 years old at the time. As a child, she was diagnosed with polio. The family brought her on a trip to St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands to help her recover. Toni and her brother Peter were both certainly impacted by their parents' unique eccentricities. Toni and her mother were at each other's throats all the time. She also had a complicated relationship with her father.
J. Robert Oppenheimer died of throat cancer in 1967. Soon after, in 1969, Toni was denied a position as a translator for the United Nations because the FBI refused to grant her a security clearance. Soon after losing out on the U.N. position, and after two unsuccessful marriages, Toni permanently relocated to St. John in the Virgin Islands. She became a recluse in her family's old cottage, with few friends on the remote island. In January 1977, a month after her 32nd birthday, she committed suicide by hanging herself in the family beach house.
