   Introduction
 
The autobiography of Bertrand Russell contains a prologue entitled "What I Have Lived For," in which he writes, "Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind" (1967Go, p. 3). Were I to think about what I have lived for, I would have to say the same thing. But I think would add that two additional passions have been to help others and to make a difference in the world. In this autobiographical article, I will reflect on my career as it developed. I have concentrated on the personal aspects of my career rather than rehashing the research and scholarly contributions that are already available in the literature. I hope these comments will be of interest and help to others as they pursue their careers.Go
