I had an unexpected but pleasant surprise at work. Donald Ritchie, Historian Emeritus of the U.S. Senate and oral history guru to thousands around the globe, was in Lexington to deliver the annual Prichard Lecture which he did yesterday. He stopped by the Nunn Center this morning for an interview with Doug Boyd. It was a pleasure to meet Donald. I learned over the summer that we have a mutual friend in Judi Jennings who just happens to be one of my favorite people. As expected of Judi’s friends, he was especially kind to me, and he gave Doug an excellent interview. He’s quite well spoken and concise in thought. I enjoyed my day at work a great deal, and it’s always a joy to meet someone kind.
