Me and the governor
So, like I wrote the other day, I got to briefly meet NY Governor James Paterson. Well, come to find out, he lives in the same apartment complex I am thinking about moving into. This is it.
moved to New York City in June 2008 to start summer institute for Teach for America. He attended the University of Florida, where he earned both his master's and bachelors' degrees. He teaches English, literacy, and writing to seventh and eighth graders, as well as advises the school newspaper, yearbook, and student council. His school is in Washington Heights, NY.
