The inspiration for Lola Bunny? Almost died on a jet ski with Martin Short? Karin Huebner is the director of the Harman Academy of Polymathic Study, where conversations abound for any and every topic, built on the principle of integrated intersectionality, so basically Peaks without a hike. However, before getting a PhD in history and leading the Academy, Prof. Huebner was a professional tennis player, having played for our crosstown Westwood high school rivals, turned pro, and then ended up becoming a tennis coach. Find out all about Prof. Huebner on this awesome hike.
