From the Paper:

"Running Head: An Interview with Michael Jordan An Interview with Michael Jordan: Generativity vs. Self-Absorption The person I chose to interview was Michael Jordan, a funeral home director. The reason that I chose this individual was because he has worked at the funeral home for over thirty years. If anyone understands the importance of life and focusing on others, it would be Michael Jordan. He is actively involved in the community, he is married with two children, and he has four grandchildren. Sadly, I met Michael Jordan when a friend of mine had died a few months ago, but I only had a brief conversation with him at that time. I called him telling him about my friend and asked if I could have an interview with him. I mentioned that it was a school project. "
