There was a time, not too long ago, that the fight against the AIDS epidemic looked hopeless and felt terrifying. Working with HIV/AIDS patients in the earliest days, to developing and implementing a global strategy as US Global AIDS coordinator, Dr. Eric Goosby is now the UN special envoy on tuberculosis. Despite his monumental resume, what's more inspiring is how humble and authentic he is, qualities that only reinforce his conviction that, with diligent action, we all have the capacity to make tremendous change in the world. It was an honor to hear him speak and photograph this event at SI last week. To see all the photos, click here.
