I studied music, taught high school, and played percussion in the Miami Philharmonic Orchestra for 12 years.In 1980 I founded the anti-poverty lobby RESULTS and its sister organization RESULTS Educational Fund. In 1990 I organized the World Summit for Children Candlelight Vigils. In 1994 the first edition of Reclaiming Our Democracy: Healing the Break between People and Government was released. The 30th anniversary edition will be released in early 2024. In 1995 I founded the Microcredit Summit Campaign along with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus and FINCA founder John Hatch. In 2012 I founded Civic Courage. Civic Courage helps NGOs train their members to create champions in Congress and the media for their cause.My first client was Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL).
