Recently a friend led me across a crowded room with the words—“Talk to this man about food; he is passionate!” So I did - and put away all my questions about the dynamic, social and radical philanthropic work that @darrenwalker does as CEO of the Ford Foundation. After 10 minutes of stories and memories of his childhood and the food he ate in Lafayette, Louisiana, I asked him to pause, suggesting we do this on River Cafe Table 4. And here we are — in the restaurant ready to carry on the conversation.
