The Work and Life of Russ Martin

Martin is an historian, technologist, health care provider, and public health researcher. He focuses on global inequality, ecological economics, and the despoliation of war. Southeast Asia summoned him twice. A commanding invitation at twenty-four to support containment of China using three separate wars in Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. The inviting command came four decades later, just whispers: “Come!” … to help heal what he had rallied around to destroy. His public health research allows the hidden to be found, unseen to be shaped, whispers to be amplified, truths to be known. He understands the imperative of nurturing health-security, and sharing his lifelong insights to reduce world suffering
