David: Life's a Pudding Full of Plums

By Roger Vaughan

DAVID is a biography of David Anderson, who in 1925 was born into one of the founding families of Standard Oil. The youngest of three brothers, David rebelled early against his elitist family, using Russian author Fyodor Dostoyevsky's raucous view of humanity as a guide. A Russian major at Yale, David Anderson's full, adventurous life has included three marriages, thirteen children (including steps), and three careers: corporate (General Dynamics); teaching (English, Russian, and history); and the Connecticut State legislature, where he was an early champion of climate change. During his 12-year term as a Representative, he evolved from Republican to Independent. At 94, Anderson is a leader of Reforest The Tropics, and a mover and shaker in Connecticut politics.
