School Story:

One day I was walking on the lawn in front of Parrish and saw Dick Stone circling one of the large oaks. I asked him why, and he explained that by walking in a circle, when he got tired he wouldn't have to return anywhere. I thought this was eminently sensible, and still do, though in my own life I have found that, as James Joyce noted, the longest way around is often the shortest way home, and have ended up happily back in my home town, New York City.

Comments:

I have spent virtually all of my working life as a writer and editor at non-profits, in areas such as civil rights, the anti-Vietnam War movement, amnesty for war resisters, health care, Nicaragua support and adult literacy. I would be happy to provide a (different) response to each person who asks me for a longer version.

Embellish on your current job, avocation and/or volunteer work during the past half-century of your life.

I edit doctoral dissertations and other academic papers, primarily relating to children with disabilities and adults confronting obesity challenges and other psychological issues.
