PHILADELPHIA (AP) - May 21, 2009 Rendell is a lawyer himself who served as Philadelphia's
district attorney for two terms before becoming the city's mayor
and later the state's governor. He gave the commencement address
Thursday to graduates of Temple University Law School - one of whom
is his son, Jesse Rendell.
The governor says in the course of his career, he's met many
people who have become rich and famous but aren't happy. He says
concentrating on public service and family may yield a less
traditional type of success, but one that's ultimately more
enriching.
