Like many Gen Xers Lisa Chamberlain has changed careers several times. As a book author she published Slackonomics: Generation X in the Age of Creative Destruction in July 2008. As the executive director of The Forum for Urban Design - comprised of preeminent architects, urban planners and developers - she oversaw all aspects of this non-profit organization. As a journalist, she covered everything from politics to real estate (the former for Salon, the later for The New York Times, in addition to writing for many other publications). As a legislative aide on Capitol Hill to then-freshman Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Lisa learned a little something about the inner workings of government and politics (and even more about Monica Lewinsky, alas). She graduated from the University of California Davis in 1992, and received a mid-career master's in journalism from Columbia University in 2003. Currently she and her partner Alexandros Washburn are raising their first daughter, Lelia Colette, and are about to have a second daughter. Lisa is in the process of changing careers once again by starting a charter school in her neighborhood of Red Hook, Brooklyn. More can be found at slackonomics.com
