Class of 1965

Ta M. Li

April 21, 2025

After retiring in 2017, I have spent my time mostly as a volunteer at the Denver Art Museum. Working as a Visitor Ambassador welcoming guests to the Museum. Here we not only greet visitors but attend the Docent Lectures on the Special Exhibits and Shows that inform visitors of the finer points of the exhibits. Over the years, special exhibits included “Becoming Van Gogh,” “Monet Water lilies,” Kent Monkman’s “History is Painted by the Victors,” to name a few. Appreciation of the fine arts has been a win-win, influenced by my education at BTHS.

It only took me an hour-and-a-half to get to and from Tech from Staten Island, where new discoveries awaited. I still use my mechanical and freehand drawing skills, avoid harming myself or the product doing woodwork or metalwork, and even understand a lot more about how all those dam’ smartphones and iPads are made. English, German, History, Industrial Processes all helped me, believe it or not, through work with the Army Security Agency, manufacturing industrial monitors in Boston, biomedical research, classified Department of Defense work, and building satellites for NASA in Greenbelt, MD. What a fascinating path built on such a broad and deep foundation.

After Tech, I attended Columbia College, Columbia Law School, and NYU Law School. I practiced tax law and then became a corporate CFO in the tech industry. Along the way, I got an MA in US History. My avocational interest is US constitutional history. I am a docent at the US Supreme Court, where I welcome visitors, give Courtroom lectures, and tours of the building. My favorite rooms, besides the Courtroom itself, are the East and West Conference Rooms with portraits of the past Chief Justices, which affords me the opportunity to talk about the history of the Court in the context of the history of the United States.
