- Abstract
William "Bill" M. Kane, PhD, CHES, was a man with public health credentials that could impress just about anyone. He served as executive director of both the American College of Preventive Medicine and the Association for the Advancement of Health Education. He was a professor of health education at the University of New Mexico, and taught at several other colleges and universities over the course of his career. He spent time as director of school health programs at ETR Associates, and served on the boards of several nonprofit organizations devoted to public health and health education. He received many honors, and wrote or coauthored over 50 books and curricula focused on health, Bill Kane was undoubtedly a man who got a lot done. But, even more important for those of us who work in public health, he remains a consummate model of how to do this work with passion.
