Spouse’s Name & Interests: Jan has a part-time business giving assemblies at elementary schools teaching creative writing using puppets, as well as giving puppet shows at children’s birthday parties and at pre-schools. Children’s Name(s) & Interests: Our son John is pursuing a career in live theater in Chicago, working as an actor (currently in a show at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater) and as co-artistic director at Stage Left, one of Chicago’s off-loop theater companies. We visit Chicago frequently to see his performances. Our daughter Ann is entering her fourth year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. Her husband works in Houston as an astronaut at NASA. They have a delightful 4-year-old daughter who requires our frequent visits to Houston. Grandchildren’s Name(s) & Interests: Granddaughter in Houston loves being a princess (most of the time). Recent visit to DisneyWorld confirmed her interest. Additional Narrative: After finishing up at MIT, I went to Harvard for an MBA, then joined Hewlett-Packard in Palo Alto. I stayed at HP for almost 23 years, doing lots of different things, mostly helping build the computer business from its infancy in 1969 to a multi-billion dollar business when I left. The growth in the business provided lots of opportunities for career growth, challenges, and fun over the years, but by 1991 it was time to move on. I joined Grass Valley Group, a professional video equipment company for about a year and a half, then joined a medium-sized software and services company called USCS International in the Sacramento, CA area. Our management team took the company public in the mid-1990’s, and I parted ways with the company in 1998. Since then, I have done a little consulting, but mostly have enjoyed being able to spend my time according to my own personal priorities, not those of the business. Fondest hope for MIT’s future: I hope MIT can play a leading role in addressing the global warming and energy issues we face. I think this is probably the most difficult technical challenge that man has ever dealt with, and MIT’s expertise and committed effort here can have a major positive impact. 4 Page 5 of 47 Schiff, Michael Course: XV Home Address: 2022 Beacon Place Home City: Reston State: VA ZIP: 20191 Home Phone: (703) 648-0870 Mobile: Email: [email protected] Web Page: Business Name: MAS Strategies Title: Founder and Principal Analyst Business Address: 2022 Beacon Place Business City: Reston State: VA ZIP: 20191 Business Phone
