...secret of his longevity rests in his musical roots. He cut his teeth in the early 1980s, when rap was still largely playful entertainment--an intricate mix of bare rhythms, verbal acrobatics and sharp humor.

...years ago, Griffin was brushing her teeth one night when... "Bam! It all came together." Of course, she had 30 years of experience teaching in public schools, but in that instant, she saw the way a school should work: teams of teachers helping students learn by themselves, a thematic curriculum, extended days, classes without bells, a three-year relationship between the students and their advisers. At the time, Griffin was working for a school that spurned her ideas. But in April 1995 she was hired to take over Olson, a 30-year-old building on Minneapolis' north side that...
