Dr. Ted Bauer describes his time working in the Public Health Service’s Venereal Disease Program before coming to CDC. Surgeon General Parran chose Dr. Bauer, for special training and he continued to be singled out for special attention by him and others in the public health leadership. During his years as Chief of CDC, he had the challenges of fighting to keep CDC in the Public Health Service, growth of the laboratory sections, defining CDC’s role with state health departments, clarifying the different roles of NIH and CDC, and having to testify before the McCarthy Committee. He also talks of the difficulties in eliminating duplication of services within CDC and coordinating their efforts on similar projects.
