Foundation President Gene M. Pranzo Receives AAEP's Leadership Award

Mr. Gene M. Pranzo, CEO and President of The Dorothy R. Havemeyer Foundation, has been named the recipient of the George Stubbs Award for leadership of the Foundation and its mission to improve the general health and welfare of horses. The George Stubbs Award recognizes the contributions made to equine veterinary medicine by individuals other than veterinarians.

Mr. Pranzo has been instrumental in developing the Foundation from its inception in 1979 to its role in scientific research, workshops and publications on equine reproduction, behavior, and infectious diseases and on the creation of an equine genetic map.

"I see it as an award to the Foundation rather than to me" says Pranzo. "It is without doubt a tribute to the work of our Principal Investigators and the outstanding workshops the Foundation has held year after year. And I am particularly pleased that recognition comes to the Foundation in the year of its silver anniversary."

The award will be presented at the Presidents's Luncheon during the American Association of Equine Practitioners Annual Convention on December 7, 2004 in Denver, Colorado.
