Two Californians who truly understand the value of scientific medical research were recently selected to head statewide health organizations leading the fight against lung disease. Dr. Strumpf is physician in charge of the pulmonary division at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Woodland Hills. Bienenstock has been fighting lung disease for more than 30 years, both professionally and personally. She first started volunteering for the American Lung Association of Santa Clara-San Benito Counties in 1981 while she was chief respiratory therapist at Stanford Children's Hospital. Over the years she has worked on a variety of health education projects and served on many boards and committees, both locally and statewide.
