Lucy Pulitzer, PhD
Executive Director
Meet the Executive Director:
She comes to Community Cradle with a Master’s degree in Public Health Nutrition from Columbia University and a PhD in Medical Sociology from SUNY Albany. Lucy has developed a nutrition education curriculum for use in a highly diverse area of rural northern California, worked with Southeast Asian refugees at Children’s Hospital in Oakland, and with homebound AIDS patients in Brooklyn. After raising her family, teaching Medical Anthropology for 15 years to RNs and raising money for health and education programs in Haiti, she was excited to come to Community Cradle and return to her original field of interest, maternal and child health. Lucy uses the word “thrilling” to describe the potential she sees for Community Cradle’s future.

We’re reaching for the stars…”
