One might look simply at the volume of paperwork he produced over his 83 years\, his architectural drawings\, the number of original inventions he incorporated into the building of his beloved Monticello\, the careful botanical observations and experiments he conducted and the massive plans he prepared for the University of Virginia to prove that he was an extraordinary scientist and engineer. \n \nMonticello by Thomas Jefferson \nOne must add to the picture his long experience as a politician and public servant: representative in the Virginia House of Burgesses\, delegate to the Continental Congress\, Governor of Virginia\, American Minister to France\, U.S. Secretary of State\, Vice President and then President of the United States. \nIn the complex creation of a new nation\, it was often Jefferson’s ideas and philosophy that helped shape the states. \nThis program will present an overview of the biography of Thomas Jefferson\, looking most closely at his role in shaping the United States and delving into his family life at Monticello that sustained him through his long public service career. \nABOUT OUR PRESENTER:   \nMary Sudman Donovan \nMary Sudman Donovan is a historian and author. She earned a Ph.D. in American history at Columbia University and has taught American and World History. Having taught for many years at Hunter College of the City University of New York\, she now teaches Learners’ Courses at Wind Crest in Highlands Ranch. Mary’s interest in Thomas Jefferson was sparked by the fact that her husband\, Herbert Donovan\, grew up in Charlottesville\, Virginia and attended the University of Virginia. She could see how pervasive Thomas Jefferson’s influence was on the culture and mind set of that small city and how it shaped the education that was offered at “Mr. Jefferson’s University.” \nPROGRAM SPONSOR:  Rick Martin\, CPA\, Charter Financial. \nRick Martin\, CPA\, Charter Financial will have a partner table and provide some insight into the upcoming INCOME TAX RETURNS.  California wildfire victims qualify for automatic tax extension until October 15th.  What does that mean for them?   And what can YOU learn from that now.   Rick can be reached at http://www.cfrusa.com/\n
