John Franklin Enders 1897
https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1954/enders-bio.html
John Franklin Enders (1897-1985) was born in Connecticut and graduated from Yale University in 1920. After beginning a career as a real estate agent, Enders decided that business was not for him. He enrolled at Harvard University, completing a master’s degree in English literature, but Enders abandoned his liberal arts studies in favor of medical research.

Despite receiving the Nobel Prize for his polio work, Enders maintained that developing the measles vaccine was more personally satisfying to him and more socially significant

*First of all, it would be nice to be as smart as Enders, but you can be this smart (kind of). Just like Enders, you can change the direction of your life. Selling real estate can be very lucrative but if it’s not your passion, it may be time to move on.

Everyday Health: What suggestions do you have for fellow potential high-cholesterol sufferers?
Mark Spitz: You can control your destiny by controlling your health. Get your cholesterol checked. Everyone else gets sick, but I don’t, was how I used to think. But high cholesterol doesn’t have any symptoms, so there’s no way to see it. It’s the silent killer.

Brown was able to accomplish all this despite lacking substantial financial means. He instead opted to rely on his own wits, creative talents and good character to keep the Celtics afloat even if this meant taking out a second mortgage on his house when the team looked like it was heading for bankruptcy in the late 1940s

For meals, however, Roberts keeps things fairly healthy, opting for “a chopped salad with avocado, chicken, and tomatoes” for lunch, and a “turkey burger, or salmon with teriyaki or ponzu sauce, and brown rice with broccoli” for dinner.
