If you could invite one person to dinner (living or dead, but not related to you) who would it be and where would you go?

I would love to take Margaret Thatcher to Peter Luger’s.

What is your DREAM job? (something other than your current job)

I don’t necessarily have a specific job that I’ve always dreamt about. But I believe strongly that we all need to give back so my dream job would involve making a difference in this world and helping those in need.
