Samuel H. Golter

Samuel H. Golter, 1953 Samuel H. Golter (January 24, 1890 in Russia – March 31, 1971 in California, USA) was born in Russia but emigrated to the United States in 1906. In 1926, he became superintendent of the Los Angeles Sanatorium, a free treatment center run by the Jewish Consumptive Relief Association in Duarte, California. In 1932, Golter became Executive Director. He led a nationwide campaign to eliminate the institution's large debt, followed by a successful expansion. Under his leadership, the institution transitioned from a small tuberculosis treatment center to a major research, teaching, and treatment center for cancer and other diseases, with a $600,000 annual budget. Long nicknamed "The City of Hope", the expanded institution was officially renamed the City of Hope National Medical Center. Provided by Wikipedia
