“Do what you love” is a common but complicated directive. As we have explored on Work Stew, it can be difficult to pursue your passions and make a living at the same time. In some cases, the answer is a second act—a brand new, post-retirement career.
In Jed  Selter’s case, that second act calls for a red nose and heavy makeup. Selter is part of a giggle of clowns (yes: a giggle!) that travels the world with a double mission: to inspire joy and to raise money for projects that improve people’s lives.
About Jed Selter: Selter is President of the Board and the Acting Executive Director of Caring Clowns International (CCI). He served in the U.S. Air Force and had a career in the aerospace industry before turning his focus to clowning. He has also written several books and is a volunteer disaster action team responder for the American Red Cross.
