I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to the APA for this tremendous honor and recognition. I am also extremely grateful to my mentors: my high-school biology teacher, Ben Kirkland; my college mentor, Ernest Williams; my Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Program mentors, Alvan Feinstein and Ralph Horwitz; my Robert Wood Johnson Harold Amos Medical Faculty Development Program mentor, Sandy Schwartz; and my cherished pediatric colleagues and mentors, Michael Weitzman, Paul Wise, and Fernando Mendoza.
