Elected five times as Mayor of Boston and five times as a City Councilor from Hyde Park, Mayor Thomas M. Menino has dedicated his career to building a better Boston for residents and businesses. He has worked to put Boston at the national forefront of healthy, livable cities by reducing ethnic health disparities, combating substance abuse, and promoting healthy nutrition for children and adults alike. Under his leadership, the city's affordable housing supply has increased dramatically, and Boston has become a national model for foreclosure prevention in the face of the foreclosure crisis.

He spoke at HSPH as part of the Decision-making: Voices from the Field series September 19, 2013. Watch the entire series at http://hsph.me/voices.
