Episode notes

I think it was a lot easier to be a VC from the East Coast than the West Coast. I would say with entrepreneurs, I was almost like a filter, I guess. Good guys weren't afraid to work with a woman. Oak HC could stay connected because there was very little overlap in our portfolios. And so you joined in, what year was that that you originally joined Oak? 82.

In the 58th episode of The Logan Bartlett Show, Annie Lamont (Co-founder, Oak HC/FT) joins to discuss the state of the market, being a woman VC in the 90s, run-ins with Steve Jobs and Elizabeth Holmes, and her duties as the First Lady of Connecticut.
