description:
Professor Louis Grivetti considers the importance of family, mentors, and undergraduate general education courses and the impact of each upon his career-related decisions. He identifies the key events and experiences that have characterized his atypical career path, one that began with dedication to the field of paleontology, but changed after he blended cultural geography with nutrition science -decisions that more recently led him to investigate the history of chocolate.
