A Brilliant and Kind Guest

Thank you for including Joseph Nye ’58 in your “Lives Lived & Lost” section.

I was honored to have him as a guest multiple times and not only found him incredibly brilliant but also very amiable and kind.

Despite his long and distinguished academic leadership career at Harvard, I was certain he agreed to join me based on my connection to Princeton and not in any way due to my “other” degree from Harvard’s Kennedy School.

If you’d like to see and hear Joe on the first program we did together long ago, just go to HarberTV.com/episodes/Nye.

My hope is those in power today will somehow gain a greater appreciation of “soft power” and deploy it strategically.
