George Saunders
The greatest gift I ever got...hmm. I've had a fortunate life, with lots of gifts in it. I think I would have to say it was the gift of being led to college by two high-school teachers of mine, Sheri and Joe Lindbloom. That was a huge crossroads and I was heading the wrong direction, and they were kind enough to involve themselves and actually GET me into the Colorado School of Mines - which was life-changing.
As far as the best gift I've ever given...that would be for someone else to say, I guess.
