Carl grew up in Newark, Delaware, and Detroit, Michigan. He graduated from
Michigan State.
His academic accomplishments include physics and masters of physics degrees,
including certification as a nuclear engineer.
He worked at Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory, designing submarine reactors, Clinton Nuclear Power Station, and SRS, performing safety analysis until retirement in 2004.
Since retirement 20 years ago, he has been a volunteer mainstay of first, the Academy of Lifelong Learning, and then its successor organization, the Center for Lifelong Learning. Over the years, he has brought in a multitude of new classes, taught many classes himself, and served as Curriculum Chair and President along the way.
