Southborough – Story Musgrave has never followed a traditional path. He attended St. Mark’s School where his innate desire to explore different places and his passion to seek adventure might have seemed at odds with the expectations of the prestigious school. Because he felt more inclined to experience life rather than read about it in books, and because at the all-boy-school he missed seeing women, children, and families, he left prior to graduation.

According to Musgrave, “Not graduating was the right thing to do. I just walked away. I departed.”
