Prof. Paul Cartledge

Hey,
I am a freshman in high school, and I am entering the National History Day Contest (http://www.nationalhistoryday.org/Contest.htm) for my History class. I will be writing a paper on the development of Athenian democracy through a series of conflicts and compromises. Anyway, I was researching the topic, and I found an article written by Professor Paul Cartledge of Cambridge University. I thought it would be great if I could interview him. I found his email and sent him a letter asking if it would be okay if I could email-interview him. He said yes!
I realize that he is not a celebrity and I'm not getting an autograph. That's why I'm posting this in General Discussion. I just wanted to share it.
