Stephen Dunn

Poets Stephen Dunn and Paul Muldoon delve into the art of poetry, discussing Donald Justice's teaching style, the balance between intention and language in writing, and themes of happiness and resilience. They explore the influence of specific words in poems and highlight the technical prowess and emotional depth found in Justice and Dunn's work.

This week, I talk to Stephen Dunn, a JAG in the Army Reserve, who explains why separating and retiring JAGs should consider doing a law firm or entering the corporate world. Unsuccessful in obtaining a commission in the active component, Stephen secured a Reserve commission after becoming a prosecutor in Michigan before moving over to a law firm. Eighteen years later, he talks about juggling both careers and why JAGs make good firm attorneys and in-house counselors. Stephen's LinkedIn profile is HERE. Podcast notes: 1. A big thank you to the individuals who signed up to be a monthly sponsor on the Spotify for Podcasters web site. As retirement and new career draw closer, my hope is to contract out the editing and production work of the podcast, allowing me to continue the podcast once I start my next career. 2. Speaking of which, I am less than 5 weeks away, but thankfully on the Navy payroll for a little longer.
