A friend recently commented on my rather unusual portrait on my (out of date) page on the Berkman website. Here’s the story.
I joined Berkman as a fellow with a fantastic class of fellows that included, among many other incredibly accomplished people, Vivek Kundra:
first Chief Information Officer of the United States. At Berkman, all
the fellows are all asked for photos and Vivek apparently sent in his official government portrait.
You are probably familiar with the genre. In the US at least,
official government portraits are mostly pictures of men in dark suits,
light shirts, and red or blue ties with flags draped blurrily in the
background.
