  • Interview with William Clark Jr
    Library of Congress Interview with William Clark Jr. The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR WILLIAM CLARK, JR. Interviewed by: Thomas Stern Initial interview date: January 11, 1994 Copyright 1998 ADST Q: Let me start with the usual question. tell us a little about your background and education and how you came to the foreign affairs community. CLARK: I took a slightly convoluted route, which actually may have been quite similar to that of my Foreign Service colleagues. I was born in California; I grew up in Hayward, a town outside of San Francisco. While growing up, I met and made friends with a number of Nisei, who were taken to resettlement centers during World War II. After graduating from Hayward Union high school, I went to what was then known as San Jose State University. I might note that the high school no longer exists because unfortunately it had been located on the Hayward fault—an off-shoot of the San Andreas fault. Because of its shaky location, it was torn down as a potential unsafe building. On that empty lot, the city put a civic center, which pleased the real estate community if no one else. In keeping with my father's wishes I enrolled in a pre-med course, which was entirely satisfactory. It became clear to me that I would probably not become a doctor, but what was not clear was were my future laid. Fortunately, at the time, there existed a program which allowed people to join the Navy for a year.

  • Missouri Almanac
    CHAPTER 1 Missouri Almanac Couple Eating at the State Fair. (Missouri State Archives) (State Historical Society of Missouri, Columbia) MAKING MISSOURI AMERICAN 13 Meriwether Lewis reached Missouri in 1808 ready to take charge. His goal was simple but hardly easy: to build a society on a frontier that seemed distant, detached, and disorganized from the rest of the United States. To realize this vision, Lewis planned nothing less than a trans- formation of the local economy, government, and military institutions. Lewis should have known better. People throughout North America had their own goals when it came to the place that became Missouri. And Lewis, he had spent the winter of 1803–1804 in St. Louis and in western Illinois, during which he observed the entrenched cultural traditions of western residents. From 1804–1806, he had led an expedition that he called the “Corps of Discovery” across the North American West, during which he met people who were themselves interested in Missouri, even from great distances. No sooner did Meriwether Lewis set to work in 1808 than he faced challenges that exceeded his abilities. The very solutions he proposed would actually be his undoing. His close friend and colleague, William Map of Missouri, 1821. Clark, watched the self-destruction that followed (State Historical Society of Missouri, Columbia) with sadness and occasional disbelief. But Clark was busy as well, pursuing many of the same And the challenges of government two cen- tasks—building a government, fostering prosperity, turies ago may seem quite familiar today.
