Christopher Carpenter ’58

I retired in 2000 after 30 years with the United Nations having worked in the Congo, Malaysia, China, Japan, Somalia, Vietnam and Russia. Upon retirement I set up a foundation which builds small-scale infrastructure projects in the Central Highlands of Vietnam and, over the past 5 years, primary and secondary schools in North Korea. Having been diagnosed with a serious illness, I now live at home near Geneva, Switzerland, and have had the chance to reflect on a life rich with experiences thanks in no small way to the years I spent at Thacher.
