Retiring after nearly 40 years, GAO Public Affairs Specialist Fuller O. “Ned” Griffith has stories to tell…

Tom Temin almost never interviews Public Affairs Officers on the Federal Drive. In fact, Temin said, “I never have. They’re never the story.” Federal Drive host Tom Temin did make an exception recently. One of the most enduring Public Affairs Specialists — and someone Federal News Network has worked with steadily for many years — retired. So Temin wanted him to tell his story. He’s Fuller O. Griffith, better known as Ned, from the Government Accountability Office.
