As he shares, on January 20th, 2001, after nearly thirty years in politics — eight of them as President of the United States — President Clinton was suddenly a private citizen. Only fifty-four years old, full of energy and ideas, he wanted to make meaningful use of his skills, his relationships with world leaders, and all he’d learned in a lifetime of politics, but how? Then, just days after leaving the White House, the call came to aid victims of a devastating earthquake in India, and President Clinton hit the ground running. Over the next twenty years, he would create an enduring legacy of public service and advocacy work, from Indonesia to Louisiana, Northern Ireland to South Africa, and in the process reimagine philanthropy and redefine the impact a former president could have on the world.
