InfoState Senator (1983-1989, 1991-1997)

I was born in Waterbury, Connecticut and grew up in Syracuse, New York. My education includes an undergraduate degree from Syracuse University and graduate degrees, including a PhD, from the University of Arizona on a full doctoral fellowship in literature and history.
The Nelson A. Rockefeller College of Public Affairs and Policy awarded me a Certificate of Advanced Study . I have studied languages overseas and at the Middlebury College Russian School.

My wife Sharron and I have lived here in Vermont since 1969. Our children were born and raised here and much of my career has been here as a teacher and college professor. For several years, I also gave language instruction at the Rossignol Ski Company.

Work Abroad
Sprinkled across my career, however, have been career stops in Africa. I spent two years teaching in a Muslim University in northern Nigeria. Recently, I was legislative advisor to the parliament of Ghana and I have been involved in short projects in both the Ivory Coast and Angola.

In addition, I regularly volunteer to help my brothers and sisters in the developing world. Last year, I volunteered in Mozambique with the Heifer Project. For the past three years, I have volunteered on school building projects in Honduras.
