Seller's Description:
Horace Henry (Jacket photo) Very good in Very good jacket. x, 254 pages. Frontis. Illustrations. Index. Foreword by Ambassador Andrew Young. Dated inscription on title page by the author. Louis Wade Sullivan (born November 3, 1933) is an active health policy leader, minority health advocate, author, physician, and educator. He served as the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services during President George H. W. Bush's Administration and was Founding Dean of the Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM). Sullivan left MSM in 1989 to accept an appointment by President George H.W. Bush to serve as secretary of HHS. In this cabinet position, Sullivan managed the federal agency responsible for the major health, welfare, food and drug safety, medical research and income security programs serving the American people. In Breaking Ground, Sullivan recounts his extraordinary life beginning with his childhood in Georgia and continuing through his trailblazing endeavors training to become a physician, founding and then leading the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, and serving as secretary of Health and Human Services in President George H. W. Bush's administration. Throughout this extraordinary life Sullivan has passionately championed both improved health care and increased access to medical professions for the poor and people of color. Sullivan went to medical school at Boston University-he was the sole African American student in his class. He went on to create a state-of-the-art institution dedicated to helping poor and minority students become doctors. Sullivan details his experiences in Washington dealing with the burgeoning AIDS crisis, PETA activists, and antismoking efforts. Along the way his interactions with a cast of politicos capture vividly a particular moment in recent history.
