To: Steve Bostic
Subject: FW: CECO Directors
Steve,
Attached is the email I sent you last month.
The review of my files reminded me that we had also submitted to Janice Block
the name of Dr. Debra Leonard, MD, Phd. of the Cornell-Weil Medical Center, as
another director of CECO. As with the other two director recommendations, she
never responded to me, and as far as I know, to Dr. Leonard with regard to the
recommendation.
