After a previous career as a community organizer, Mr. Graber Grace switched to teaching to help young people understand their government and be the change in their community. "Teaching by Example" chronicles the busy schedule of Mr. Graber-Grace as he balances teaching civics, improving his community, and raising his children.

He applies his lessons of democratic thought, government fundamentals, and social change to his work with the Durham Association of Educators to advances local education and ensures quality education for all.
