Continuing season 2 of Beyond the Summit, New York Times columnist Paul Sullivan ’95 speaks with Trinity College alumni who have devoted their  post-college careers to serving and helping others. 
In this episode, Paul speaks with pediatrician and geneticist D. Holmes Morton, M.D., who has dedicated his career to the Amish and Mennonites of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, treating children afflicted with genetic illnesses. Dr. Morton completed the Individualized Degree Program at Trinity College in 1979, and later he received the Albert Schweitzer Prize for Humanitarianism in 1993 and was named one of Time Magazine's “Heroes of Medicine” in 1997.  In 2006 he was awarded a MacArthur Foundation “genius grant” for “Working tirelessly with rural communities to revolutionize service,  research, prescriptions, and outcomes for clinical treatment of rare  genetic diseases.” He has been featured in The New York Times, the winter 2020 issue of The Trinity Reporter, and CNN profiled the COVID-19 testing clinic he founded that features a new way to test for the virus and accommodates horse and buggy drive-through testing.
