Courage and character, leaders and legends: An interview with Rear Admiral Kenneth P. Moritsugu, MD, MPH

摘要

When I contacted Dr Moritsugu and asked to interview him for my series Courage and Character, Leaders and Legends, he agreed and invited me to Great Falls, Virginia. As I drove to his home, I feared I had missed a turn because I seemed to be in a beautiful wilderness park, but the single lane road fortunately led me into his driveway. Dr Moritsugu's wife, Lisa Kory, answered the door to their beautiful home, which takes full advantage of its park-like surroundings. I had met Lisa at a NATCO meeting in the early 1990s when she was a procurement coordinator in California. She later moved to Washington, DC, and served as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the Transplant Recipient International Organization. Not surprisingly, she and Dr Moritsugu met at a transplant-related meeting and were married in 2000.
