Anne Holton and Tim Kaine

Former Governor of Virginia Tim Kaine ‘83 and First Lady Anne Holton ‘83 discussed work-life balance at a March 6 event sponsored by the Bernard Koteen Office of Public Interest Advising. Between them, they have been a missionary, a fair housing lawyer, a local and state elected official, a federal clerk, a legal aid lawyer and juvenile court judge, a law professor, a stay-at-home parent, a nonprofit advocate and a national party chair. They talked about how to construct a long-term career in public service that is able to evolve, meaningful and fun and allows time for family, friendship, and nonlaw community involvement.
