| Introduction | Mr. Johnson is married with four daughters, two dogs, and two cats. Mr. Johnson's daughters have graduated from university or are pursuing advanced degrees. Kerrie, his oldest daughter has completed work on her MSW at the University of Vermont. Caitlin is pursuing a Master's Degree in molecular biology at East Carolina University. Erin is a graduate of the Doctoral Program in Physical Therapy at URI. Andrea, the youngest, just completed her BS in Biology with a minor in writing. While she contemplates graduate programs, she is working in a biotechnology lab at URI. Andrea was recently offered a job at Monsanto, but couldn't forgive the soulless multinational for their reprehensible treatment of Rachel Carson. Mr. Johnson's wife, Karen, is a Nurse Practitioner. During her abundant free time, Karen also teaches piano. Mr. Johnson has several college degrees reflecting his lifelong inability to formulate and complete a plan. Some of Mr. Johnson's favorite people, besides his wife and children, are Howard Zinn, Ralph Nader, Ted Williams, Richard Walton, Henry Wallace, Uncle Dave and Aunt Margretta, Naomi Klein, Marissa Tomei, and James Hansen and Sharon Olds. |
