Our Interview with Brian
Here are some questions we asked Brian about his diverse interests.
How did you become involved in so many things?
Do you mean, “Can’t you make your mind up?!” The thought occurs to me from time to time too. But really, I see them as all part of the same thing. It’s all about communication and the power of stories.
How does medicine fit into the power of stories?
Perhaps an example will help. When I was in the fifth grade, I came up with the idea for Health Stories for Kids. One of the stories is called “Body Wars,” which personifies the immune system and how the body fights disease.
How else does that work?
Well, I’m very interested in child psychiatry. Obviously, stories are important to that. And in a general sense, stories are important for people to understand their diseases.
Star Trek or Star Wars?
Star Wars.
