At 71, He's Not Too Old to Be Mayor

Tom Arceneaux opted to forego retirement for civic leadership.

My classmate Tom Arceneaux sacrificed a promising career as a retired elder to throw his energies into a campaign for mayor of his hometown. Now he’s Mayor, with all that job entails. In this interview, he discusses whether age has anything to do with fitness for office, what a typical day as mayor is like, and why he felt compelled to leap back into the fray at the end of a successful legal career.
