Just the second black male Surgeon General, Adams led the 6,000-person US Public Health Service through responses to three category 5 hurricanes, a raging opioid epidemic, and a once-in-a-century pandemic. As health commissioner, Adams led Indiana through Ebola, Zika, and HIV crises and worked with governor Mike Pence and an ultra-conservative state legislature to legalize syringe service programs.
Dr. Adams is a Distinguished Professor and Director of Health Equity at Purdue University. He also teaches anesthesiology at Indiana University School of Medicine and is a medical correspondent for WISH-TV. He is married to Lacey, who has recently and publicly spoken of her battle with metastatic melanoma, and is the father of three school-age children, Caden, Eli, and Millie. Dr. Adams’ family also includes their two dogs, Bella and Ruby.ver menos
