5-Minute Interview: Howard Baskin, chairman, Big Cat rescue

I met Carole in late 2002 and became a full-time volunteer in early 2003. Carole and I married in late 2004. My background includes a Harvard MBA, 11 years with Citicorp (now Citigroup), then ten years in small businesses where I had some kind of equity participation. In most cases, I went into an existing business at the point where the entrepreneur had gotten it started but was unable to take it further without better organization.
