Porchlight Episode 1: Craig Barrett, former CEO/Chairman Intel Corp.

We're back! Porchlight is a new series on Curiouser and Curiouser where we talk with fascinating, accomplished individuals about their childhoods and formative years. These episodes will be in addition to regular Curiouser and Curiouser content. Imagine the relief when you return home late at night, after a long journey or a trying day to find the porchlight on, a welcoming northstar, guiding you back to warmth and safety. We're hoping that delving into people's early trajectories will similarly, not only be educational and entertaining, but also serve as a model, a template and a beacon of inspiration, a step forward by looking back at the guiding values, attitudes and behaviors that laid the foundation and templates for lives.Our first guest is a world renowned CEO and business executive, advocate for education, STEM and innovation, Dr. Craig Barrett, the former CEO and Chairman of the Intel Corporation. Dr. Barrett is a leading advocate for improving education in the U.S. and globally, and is a spokesman for the value technology can provide. We'll chat with Craig about his formative years and you'll get to know him in a more personal light. Please note this episode may have skips due to a new editing platform. This conversation is also just that: a conversation, free form and informal.
