Moulthrop, Dan

Education: M.J., bachelor’s degree, University of California, Berkeley

What Guides My Decision Making: We all owe a debt to the community and to the institutions we serve. It’s that sense of obligation that guides me. We should do right by the community and the previous generations who created the legacy we inherit. We’re also accountable to the next generation and many after that.  

First Thing I Do When I Start My Day: Coffee, three to five news sources and work out 

Proudest Moment: When we opened the doors of the new City Club at Playhouse Square

My Very First Job and What I Learned From It: I was a paperboy for The Trenton Times. I learned to get up early, to show up when people are counting on you and how to quit when the job is no longer a good fit.  

Hobby/Passion: Reading books. There’s just no substitute for this deeply human way of building understanding and empathy.
