I like the idea of discussing why/how we got
interested in the field.  It is a positive way to
redirect the list.

When I was very young my mother used to take me to the
park and tell me to pick out objects that I liked.
When I got home I created a collage out of the
objects.  Later, in high school I took an advanced
humanities course.  My teacher was very inspiring and
pushed us to write a paper on something that
interested us.  I chose Frank Duveneck and spent
months studying his paintings.  I wrote the paper and
got an A.  I thought it was the easiest A I ever got
because I loved researching the artist so much.  I
have been hooked on art history since that time.  I
look forward to hearing about other people's
experiences.
