Amanda Elliston left the Academy and went on to Smith College where she
developed a passion for political activism. Always an activist at heart,
she ended up pursuing a career in education, working first in an innovative
public school in Brooklyn and eventually making her way back to teaching at
the Academy and then in San Francisco. We loved this conversation with
Amanda from her current home in Portland, Oregon as she looks back on the
many surprises in her life, including her marriage to John Gray, who makes
a cameo appearance in this episode. You won’t want to miss this
conversation with Amanda!
