School Lessons

When this story about the Peace Corps published in September 1964, the volunteer program was only a few years old. Here, an American volunteer named Nan Borton teaches English in Antakya, Turkey. Decades later, Borton would become the director of the Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance at the U.S. Agency for International Development.
