Anne's Berkley commencement speech

In 2003, Anne gave a speech to the new graduates of the University of Berkeley. In her own words, she explains what she touched on: "I told the students that the secret to success was simple—ignore your parents' expectations, give money to the ACLU, and find out the truth about who you are."
