Former Governor Jennifer Granholm and her husband, former First Gentleman Dan Mulhern, are headed to California for teaching positions at the University of California-Berkley, Granholm’s alma mater. Both will begin teaching immediately and finish the 2011 academic year on a part-time basis, followed by commitments through 2013. In addition to teaching and finishing a book on her experiences as Governor, slated for publication in September, Granholm will also become a commentator for NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Granholm, whose parents live in California, and Mulhern reported their intentions of making Michigan their permanent home and are evidently searching for waterfront property.
