Gender	Male
Occupation	erstwhile professor
Location	Newton, MA, United States
Introduction	After getting a BA in linguistics, and working in local government, I got a master's degree and then a Ph.D. in public policy from the Kennedy School at Harvard. I taught at the University of Arizona (Public Administration and Policy) in Tucson, then at the University of Haifa (Political Science) in Israel. While in Israel, my symptoms from multiple sclerosis began to interfere with my ability to do research and I took a leave of absence (unofficial for complicated bureaucratic reasons) and returned to the US. I am now on disability. /// If you want to be put on the e-mail list for notification of new postings on this blog, write me by clicking on "View my complete profile" below, and finding "email" in the left column.
