Episode 65: Jim Henderson (Attorney/Singer)

Meet Jim Henderson! He's an attorney and singer here in Watertown. In this wide-ranging conversation we talk about his early years in law (including winning a state supreme court case as a junior associate), the importance of different parts of his life beyond his law work such as his musical practice, how he homeschooled his kids and why the arts played a big part in that, and running for Massachusetts Secretary for State as an independent (and getting almost 3% of the vote). We do a dive into a part of his current work of getting questions on the state ballot, how he got into that field, the behind-the-scenes process of drafting the language, the political strategies involved, the questions he's worked on in the past and the four that he's currently working on this cycle. Then we end with his musical project Crooked Mowth and the story of reconnecting with his birth father in his 40s. Learn more about Jim, the lawyer at law.jdhenderson.comLearn more about Jim, the singer at crookedmowth.comSupport the showHead on over to www.littlelocalconversations.com to check out all the episodes, events, and everything else going on. Sign up for the Little Local Conversations email newsletter Follow on Instagram: @littlelocalconversationsUpcoming events!
