A graduate of Harvard College, Clarkson also has a doctorate in organizational behavior from Boston University, which Lanzarotta believes comes in especially handy when working with musicians and churches.
‘Andy could inspire a rock to sing,’ she says. ‘Besides being a really talented musician, he’s just a person of infectious enthusiasm and total encouragement for singers and musicians.’”
