FEATURE
Jeff Isaac is a noted and outspoken professor at Indiana University’s school of political science. He’s the past editor of the academic journal, Political Science, and has written countless articles for scholarly publications and numerous books. The road he took to academia was never straight. A kid growing up in Queens, New York City, he played stickball and did his best to get out of piano lessons. Now, he’s also an accomplished jazz musician. He talked about music with Michael Glab on last week’s edition of Big Talk.
