Last week Tracy Lauritzen-Wright came to visit and talk with the class. She works for the National Civil Rights Museum. She spoke to us about the progression from the point where she left school up until her current life. Interestingly, although she explained the process as at times being purely based in luck, she explained pretty thoroughly the things that she did to help improve her luck. It seemed in this case more like the message was to try and prepare as much as you can. After a certain point, it sort of always comes down to luck. Persistence really seems to be the key.
She also talked of art related jobs for a little bit. She recommended that we consider these sorts of jobs too. She highly recommended interning at a museum, which sounds pretty interesting to me. I definitely think that I will try to pursue some art or music related job when I get out of school which will help pay for my art/music habit.
