About the Authors

Marshall Kreuter, retired from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2000, is a consultant to international, national, and state health agencies and private foundations. He has dedicated his career to enhancing the skills of practitioners and is the consummate teacher. Marsh cooks for friends and family, plays golf and lives in Bigfork, Montana, and Atlanta, Georgia.

In the field of public health, Nicole Lezin is best known for her distinguished work in two areas: strategic planning/management and technical writing. In both arenas, she has helped public health professionals analyze and communicate critical issues in epidemiology, injury prevention, teen pregnancy prevention, oral health, community-based health promotion, and school health education. She spends her free time reading and accompanying her dog on walks to the beach and redwood forests of Central California.

Matt Kreuter is an expert in the design and evaluation of computer tailored health communication programs addressing a wide range of health issues including, but not limited to: smoking cessation, dietary changes, physical activity, weight management, cancer screening, childhood immunization, occupational health, injury prevention, maternal and child health, and alcoholism recovery. In his family, Matt is the reigning Scrabble champion.

Larry Green's record of scholarship is unparalleled in the fields of health education and health promotion. No one has done more to contribute to the strengthening the scientific credibility of the field. The products of his ideas and his research have influenced public health policies and practices globally. He has homes in Atlanta and San Francisco and, outside of his academic endeavors, exercises regularly and works on his jump shot.
