Stephen Heard
In Stephen Heard's book All The Way Up, his account opens with his upbringing in Westwood, Massachusetts, his private education at Milton Academy in the 1950s, and his years of sports, friends, and academics at Harvard. Shortly after receiving his degree, Steve was quickly commissioned in the United States Air Force and served three years as an intelligence officer in Spain. While living on the civilian economy and making local connections, he participated in some of the Cold War's most challenging episodes, a number of which are still largely classified today.
After his return to the United States in the 1960s, Steve attended Stanford Law School while working as a Santa Clara Deputy Sheriff. Steve then began five successful, eventful decades of practicing international law in several law firms—two of which he started. Stephen Heard served 20 years on the Board of the New York City Fresh Air Fund, the last 13 of which he was president. He also served several terms on Stanford Law School's Board of Visitors. Steve now enjoys his retirement with his wife, Susan, in Seabrook, South Carolina.
