Robin and Eileen West
W
e met when I came to Washington in 1981 to join the Reagan administration. Eileen had just returned from San Francisco with TIME magazine to become a CBS News reporter. We fell in love, married and raised four children. Washington is a beautiful city of human scale with interesting people and big ideas. It is a great place to bring up children.We love the city’s playfulness — its skating rinks, sledding hills, biking and jogging trails — and strong sense of community and friendship. Washington allows us to work at the things we cherish. Eileen, an author and freelance journalist, is chairman of Refugees International and has advocated for refugees in Darfur, Eastern Congo, South Sudan and Thailand. She is also on the board of The SEED Foundation. I run an international energy consulting firm and serve as chairman of the United States Institute of Peace, having led the construction of its headquarters on the Mall. I also co-chair the German Marshall Fund of the U.S. We both travel a lot, but cannot wait to come home to Georgetown where we are reminded how lucky we are to live and work in Washington.
