How has your English degree from Duke shaped your work life?

It helped me get my first professional job at the National Endowment for the Humanities, where I worked from 1976-1985, when I left to earn a Master’s in Public Administration at the Harvard Kennedy School, which led to my working for 33 years at the Center for Civic Education.
