My Take
Wendy Sherman commands my respect for the unglamorous endurance her career demanded. Rising to Deputy Secretary of State and teaching the next generation at the Harvard Kennedy School, she spent decades in a field where a single misstep can alter a nation's fate. Diplomacy rarely offers applause; its victories are quiet, its battles fought across negotiating tables few of us ever see. That she sustained a frontline role for so long, earning the National Security Medal, speaks to real steel beneath the composure. I value most that she chose to pass her hard-won experience forward rather than simply retire into silence.
