Megan Early Alter is an Iowa City city councilor who joined me in my shop to talk about her time at New York University, which is also where I went to college, what brought her here, her “day job” at ACT, her time as a professor at the University of Iowa, why she decided to enter politics, what it’s like being an elected official in a town like Iowa City, training with the Joffrey Ballet, being a competitive collegiate diver, and a whole bunch of other things I didn’t know about her since she’s the first guest I’ve had on who I didn’t already know to some degree, which made for a very interesting conversation.
