During World War II, he lef the protective towers of Yale to volunteer; after the war and his graduation from college he served for two years in Berlin with the American Friends Service Committee before entering Law School. He left a comfortable Wall Street law practice to join the Peace Corps--first as General Counsel, then as Special Assistant to Sargent Shriver, and now as Secretary General of the International Secretariat for Volunteer Service.
