Q: Can you explain a bit about the founding of AARP?
Joan Wise is general counsel for AARP, which assists and advocates on behalf of persons over age 50. Now approaching age 65, Wise has worked for AARP for 19 years, seven of those as its GC. She enjoys working with both in-house and outside counsel, and finds that one of the best things about her job is that after so many years, she's still constantly learning. Perhaps surprisingly, AARP is the nation's largest nonprofit mailer, so one area Wise commonly has to deal with is postal issues.
