Turns out Austin King, the progressive activist who became Madison City Council president at age 24, was only getting started.
Now, at 28, after two years in New Orleans, heâ??s headed back to school, earning scholarships at New York Universityâ??s School of Law and the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
In Madison, King often was at the center of action, fighting for social justice causes while a UW-Madison student.
