Along with his experience as research scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Gordon worked on city problems serving as a commissioner on the Planning Commission, the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Environmental Commission. He also has been a board member of the Berkeley Repertory Theatre.

Originally from Dubuque, Iowa, Gordon moved to Berkeley in 1966 to attend graduate school, where he met his wife Evie.
