Building Values
A
few short months ago, on the east side of our campus
along San Vicente Boulevard, the Advanced Health Sciences
Pavilion opened its doors to our community. And while it is
a worthy structure, the Pavilion is something more: an embodiment of
the values that guideВ Cedars-Sinai.
First and foremost, the Pavilion reflects our most fundamental
value: the well-being of our patients. It supports the highest levels of
care, safety, and comfort. Our programs in cardiology, neurosurgery,
neurology, and other outpatient services demonstrate our hope, our
desire, and our responsibility for each patient to feel genuinely
welcomed and cared for. From its serene waiting areas to its bright,
comfortable exam rooms, this place is for our patients.В The Pavilion embodies another core value: generosity. As they have
done through the decades, our community of donors stepped forward
with abundant funding.
The Pavilion also represents a third value: the paramount importance
of deep communication. The building is an 11-story synergy network.
This is something new. Throughout
the 20th century, scientists and
doctors worked in separate
spaces and, more often than
not, in separate buildings.
Their workspaces reflected
traditional thinking that valued
compartmentalization. Today, we know that keeping scientists and
doctors apart tends to block the flow of knowledge. Progress often
happens in spontaneous, face-to-face conversations.
In short, the Pavilion flows from the principle that human connection
is the essential ingredient for superior care and life-changing science.
The Pavilion reflects the value we place on our environment as
well. Its 21st-century energy-saving innovations earned a Leadership
in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) gold rating from the U.S.
Green Building Council. We are proud that the Pavilion is one of the
greenest medical facilities in the United States. В Last, though not least, the Pavilion is convenient: The first levels of
the building are devoted to parking.
Superior patient care, cutting-edge science, community generosity,
vibrant communication, green design, and visitor convenience — the
Pavilion is new to Los Angeles, but it is grounded in Cedars-Sinai
tradition: It is here to serve you.
“First and foremost, the Advanced Health
Sciences Pavilion reflects our most fundamental
value: the well-being of our patients.”

iPads Foster Bonding in the NICU
R
achel Little desperately
wanted to visit her
newborn daughter, but
her own recovery from the
cesarean birth confined her to a
hospital bed during this crucial
time of bonding, and the baby
could not yet be released from
the Neonatal Intensive Care
Unit (NICU). Fortunately, a new
initiative in the Maxine Dunitz
Children’s Health Center at
Cedars-Sinai offers a solution for
that, and Rachel was among the
first to use it.
Called BabyTime, this innovative
project uses the iPad’s FaceTime
video networking technology
to connect mothers with their
newborns soon after delivery — 
even when parent and child are
hospitalized on different floors.
As soon as the baby is admitted
to the NICU, an iPad is set up
beside the infant’s incubator.
A second iPad is brought to the
new mother, who can log on
to BabyTime twice a day to
see her child.
“BabyTime reduces fear and
stress in new moms, as they
are able to see their babies and
also communicate with doctors
and nurses,” says NICU nurse
manager Selma Braziel, RN.
“Even though I couldn’t hold
my baby girl, she stopped crying
when she heard me talk to
her,” Rachel recalls. In turn, the
new mother was comforted by
being able to hear physicians
in the NICU explain the infant’s
condition. “While it’s not the
same as being able to hold your
baby, it was almost as good,” she
says. A day later, her daughter
was released from the NICU,
and Rachel could hold her baby
at last.
Julius Caceres, RN, left, and Yvonne Kidder, RN,
right, helped create the BabyTime program that
is allowing new mom Florentina Trujillo to see
her baby in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Baa…ginnings of Cedars-Sinai
Rooted in Shepherds’ Trust
Cedars-Sinai’s history dates back to 1902 and the founding of
Kaspare Cohn Hospital, named for a prominent businessman.
But its roots go back even further, to the late 1800s, when
Southern California was covered in fields upon which sheep and
cattle grazed, and Cohn’s business included the wool trade. Shepherds
grew to trust the merchant so much that he would hold their money
while they tended their flocks. Two great institutions grew out of these
shepherds’ faith in Cohn: Union Bank and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
as we know it today.

ose Steckler, 82, had to
take three buses to the
12th annual Senior Health
Fair at West Hollywood’s Plummer
Park Community Center, but she
knew it would be worth it. After
having her blood pressure tested,
Rose had her total cholesterol and
glucose levels measured. CedarsSinai’s Eileen Rodriguez, RN, took
her readings and relayed good
news: Blood sugar was normal,
cholesterol excellent.
The health fair provides a
lifeline for some of the region’s
most vulnerable residents. CedarsSinai co-sponsored the event and
brought in 21 nurses to provide
Community

free screenings for heart disease,
diabetes, and breast cancer.
Six of the nurses could speak
Russian — a benefit to the large
contingent of Russian immigrants
who face language barriers as
well as financial obstacles to
accessing needed care.
Cedars-Sinai has been sending
health professionals to this event
ever since the health fair began. The
other co-sponsors are Jewish Family
Services of Los Angeles, the Los
Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center,
and The Saban Community Clinic.
While Rose was pleased with
her results, many others received
news that called for action. One
woman learned her blood pressure
was alarmingly high, despite her
lean frame and apparent good
health. After checking the results,
Larisa Bazarenco, RN, led the
woman to a nurse who specializes
in stroke treatment and who
was distributing materials about
risk factors and symptoms. Then
Bazarenco introduced the woman
to another nurse for counseling on
follow-up steps.
Gail Millan, RN — who organizes
teams for community events in her
role as Nursing Educator Program
coordinator for the Cedars-Sinai
Geri and Richard Brawerman
Nursing Institute — observed the
event with satisfaction. “She feels
she doesn’t have options because
she can’t afford treatment,” Millan
noted of the Russian woman. “But
the nurses gave her referrals to
clinics where she can get free or
low-cost healthcare.”
Cedars-Sinai provides health
screenings at community sites in
underserved parts of Los Angeles
throughout the year. With 400
participants, the West Hollywood
Senior Health Fair is one of the largest.
Abbe Land, a West Hollywood
City Council member, stood in a
crowded hallway of the community
center and greeted health fair
participants with smiles and hugs.
“We really value Cedars-Sinai’s
partnership and willingness to
come,” she said, “not only to this
event, but wherever we need them
to provide health education to
our community.”
Counts
The passion for healing that is part of Cedars-Sinai’s DNA doesn’t
stop at the borders of our campus — it also encompasses the health
needs of vulnerable residents throughout greater Los Angeles.

With the goal of prevention and
early detection, Cedars-Sinai
nurses screened 4,844 individuals
for hypertension and diabetes at community health events
over a recent 10-month period.

The People Coordinated Services’ Multipurpose
Senior Center in Southwestern Los Angeles offers

Uplifting Spiritual Care
U
nderstanding that healing involves the whole person — body,
mind, and soul — Cedars-Sinai has expanded its chaplaincy
program to offer support to patients, their loved ones, and
staff members. The hospital’s chaplaincy staff has nearly quadrupled
since 2010, growing from three clergy members to 10.
Professionally trained and certified Jewish,
Catholic, Protestant, and interfaith chaplains
function as an integral part of the interdisciplinary
healthcare team: They participate in daily rounds
visiting patients — alongside doctors, nurses, social
workers, and ethicists — and document a patient’s
progress on the same chart as the medical team.
Cedars-Sinai chaplains visit more than 1,500 patients
per month, addressing sacred and existential
concerns, as well as spiritual pain.
In November 2012, Cedars-Sinai opened its own
clinical pastoral education program, which will
train up to 18 chaplains a year. Student chaplains
visit with more than 500 patients a month, bringing
the total monthly spiritual care visits at CedarsSinai to close to 2,000.

The Major Catalyst
Tragedy

How Irene Pollin turned overwhelming personal
helping improve the detection and treatment
loss into activism that is
of women’s heart disease.
Like many high-achieving women, Irene Pollin
By Candace Pearson
8
CATALYST WINTER 2013–14
has taken on multiple identities over the years — entrepreneur, psychiatric social
worker, public health advocate, philanthropist/activist, wife, and mother.
“Life has a way of taking you places you never expect to go,” Irene
says. This truism has been borne out by her own journey: Irene’s life took
her from devastating family tragedies to becoming a respected expert on
chronic illness and the founder of the nation’s first organization dedicated
to women’s heart disease prevention and education — Sister to Sister, the
Women’s Heart Health Foundation.
Now Irene has taken a new step by making a transformational $10
million gift to create the Linda Joy Pollin Women’s Heart Health Program
at the Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center in the Cedars-Sinai Heart
Institute. “Partnering with Cedars-Sinai is an obvious extension of the
prevention-focused work that has made Sister to Sister unique,” she says. “I
could not think of a better way to reach out to our sisters.”
Sister to Sister has been connecting with women since its launch in 1999.
Today, the nonprofit is the largest provider of free heart health evaluations
for women — with more than 100,000 cardiovascular screenings — and
its “Smart for the Heart” online heart risk assessment tool is accessed by
20,000-plus visitors every month. “If someone knows their risk factors and
the results they themselves can accomplish,” Irene says, “I believe they can,
and will, make the necessary changes.”
Her initial career was nearly as global — in another arena. For almost half
a century, she and her late husband, Abe Pollin, were sports industry VIPs
as co-owners of the Baltimore/Washington Bullets, which later became the
Washington Wizards. They also owned a Women’s NBA team, a hockey team,
and Verizon Center, the sports-entertainment complex in Washington, D.C.

Irene credits her mother, Goldie Kerchek, as
“Irene is a feisty
innovator. She’s an
amazing pioneer—
tenacious, intelligent,
and committed.”
—C. Noel Bairey Merz, MD

CATALYST WINTER 2013–14
Irene and Abe met at age 17. “We essentially
grew up together,” she recalls. As the NBA’s longest-tenured owners, the
Pollins knew great highs, including winning the 1979 NBA Championship.
“We waited 14 years for that to happen,” she says, adding that it was a
“once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
They also encountered great lows: In 1952, their 1-year-old son, Kenneth,
passed away from congenital heart disease. Eleven years later, the same
condition took the life of their daughter, Linda, at age 16. Out of this
overwhelming personal loss grew a passion for activism that continues
today. “It was the desire to come back to life after the loss of our daughter
that led to the purchase of the Baltimore Bullets and this entirely new
experience,” says Irene.
Irene returned to school after her daughter’s passing, earning a master’s
degree in social work. In 1976, she created the first Medical Crisis
Counseling Center to treat patients and families coping with chronic illness.
She has published numerous articles and three books on the topic. In 1984,
while she was serving on the National Cancer Institute Advisory Board, she
learned women were often excluded from research. So she helped create
“NBA Wives Save Lives.”
“Irene is a feisty innovator,” says C. Noel Bairey Merz, MD. The director
of the Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center and the Women’s Guild Chair
in Women’s Health has known Irene since the early 2000s. They
met after Dr. Bairey Merz saw an ad Irene placed in a medical journal
announcing that Sister to Sister was seeking partner sites to launch an
annual cardiovascular screening day. “She’s an amazing pioneer — tenacious,
intelligent, and committed,” says Dr. Bairey Merz.
an inspiration for her multi-faceted career. Goldie was the kind of woman
who could bake a prize-worthy lemon meringue pie, yet when it was
necessary to help with family finances, she opened a small store a bus ride
away from their St. Louis home. “She not only did it, she loved it,” says Irene.
It’s clear Irene loves the mission she embraced as chair of Sister to Sister and
a champion for women’s health. “I’m proud to have such outstanding partners
as we move forward,” she says. “My heart feels full with this opportunity.”
The Linda Joy Pollin Women’s Heart Health Program promotes a threepart mission: education, research, and advocacy. Previously, the Barbra
Streisand Women’s Health Center had to carve out dollars from its clinical
budget to fund education for medical professionals and the public. “This gift
will provide for that critically important enterprise,” says Dr. Bairey Merz.
The program also will help sustain women’s heart research and expand the
Center’s role as advocate for gender equality in public health policy.
Having survived the loss of her children and her beloved Abe, Irene has
forged a joyous family life with sons Robert and James, daughter-in-law Sigrid,
two granddaughters, and a great-granddaughter. But her mind is never far
from the challenges of heart disease prevention. “I look forward each day to
thinking about what I can do to reach more women worldwide,” she says.
Signs of a Heart Attack
Symptoms Every Woman Should Know and Pay Attention To
Women and men typically differ in their experience of heart attack symptoms, as women are less
likely to have classic male symptoms such as chest pain and left-arm pain.
If you have any of these symptoms for more than five minutes and are unsure of the cause, call 911:
♥ Nausea or vomiting
♥ Dizziness or lightheadedness
♥ Shortness of breath, with or without chest
discomfort
♥ Discomfort or pressure in the center of
the chest­ — often lasting more than a few
minutes, or it can come and go
♥ Pain in one or both arms, upper back, neck,
jaw, or stomach
♥ Paleness or clammy skin
♥ Fainting
♥ Inability to sleep
♥ Breaking out in a cold sweat
♥ Unusual fatigue
Sometimes just one or two of the above symptoms may indicate a heart attack, and be aware that
these symptoms can go away and return.
Heart disease is the No. 1 health threat to women, causing one in three deaths each year.
Treatment works best if administered within one hour of the onset of symptoms. If you are
treated within one hour, your risk of dying declines by 50 percent. If treated within three hours,
your risk of dying is reduced by 25 percent.

The Helen and Roy Ryu Collaborative Research Laboratory fulfills
the promise of the Pavilion as a new model for collaborative medicine
while it catalyzes discovery in the neurosciences. The Pavilion brings
leading physicians and scientists together with patients into the same
facility to speed advances in research. In the new lab, researchers consult
with clinical colleagues in a quest for advanced neurological treatments.
The light-filled, open lab encourages researchers to share ideas and inspire
one another. In this innovative space, diverse experts will come together to
reshape brain medicine and expand the horizons of neuroscience.

The Paul Marciano Foundation Lobby is a reflection
of the technologically advanced, patient-centric approach
of Cedars-Sinai’s neurosciences clinics. Comfortable
and modern, the lobby features a vast digital display
of jellyfish that rivals the magic of any aquarium and
soothes patients as they wait. By combining leading-edge,
compassionate care with unparalleled research under one
roof, Cedars-Sinai’s neurosurgery and neurology experts
can provide world-class treatment options for patients.
Insights that evolve in the neurosciences labs will flow
into the global community, informing physicians and
healing people everywhere.

Lippmans Endow Surgical Oncology Chair
Longtime Cedars-Sinai supporters Linda and Jim Lippman
have endowed the Linda and Jim Lippman Chair in Surgical
Oncology to support the leading-edge work of Armando
E. Giuliano, MD, in the battle against breast cancer. Dr.
Giuliano is a pioneer in the introduction of sentinel node
biopsy for breast cancer treatment. The naming of this
chair is the culmination of a decades-long relationship
between the Lippmans and the Medical Center: They are
premier supporters of the Pink PartyВ®, an annual event
benefiting women’s cancer research, and their two sons
were born at Cedars-Sinai.
Dancing for NED
Writer-producers Melissa Rosenberg (Twilight ) and Dana
Baratta (Private Practice) organized and hosted Dancing
for NED to benefit the Cedars-Sinai Women’s Cancer
Program at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer
Institute and the work of its director, Beth Y. Karlan, MD.
Radha Mitchell, Barry Watson, Mike White, and Jennifer
Coolidge were among the actors who joined patients and
physicians to celebrate cancer survivors and to raise funds
and awareness for women’s gynecological cancers. Mark
Valley served as master of ceremonies, and the dancing
lasted until midnight.
“NED” stands for “No Evidence of Disease,” which is what
every woman with gynecological cancer strives for. Baratta
shared her own experience with ovarian cancer. “Some were
fooled by my fabulously ghetto wigs, but to me the world
seemed to stop,” she said. “But I’m proud to say that for
almost a year now I have been dancing with NED.”
The American Cancer Society estimates that
some 83,000 women are diagnosed each year with
gynecological cancers and approximately 28,000 die
from them. “Fear doesn’t get in the way of our team
fighting cancer,” said Dr. Karlan. “We are not scared
of women’s cancers. We believe in our patients, our
approach, and our leading technologies.”

Retreat Advances Team Science
“Team Science Opportunities for 2013 and Beyond” was
the theme of the most recent Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical
Institute retreat. Keith L. Black, MD, institute director and chair
of the Department of Neurosurgery, convened the gathering,
and Cedars-Sinai President and CEO Thomas Priselac
provided the welcoming remarks. Faculty members presented
updated information on tumor immunology, nanotechnology,
optical imaging, innovations against Alzheimer’s disease,
collaborations with NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
human neurophysiology, stroke, neuromuscular disease,
and stem cell and regenerative medicine. Throughout the
day, breaks and round-robin discussions gave attendees the
opportunity to actively engage with one another regarding the
issues presented. Maxine Dunitz hosted the event, which
was held at the Hillcrest Country Club.

Heartening Talks about Cardiac Care
This year’s Heart to Heart Conversation series covered
topics ranging from congenital conditions to advances
in cardiac care. Pediatric attending physician Scott W.
Cohen, MD, led off the talks with “A Valentine’s Day
Story” about children’s heart treatments. Evan Zahn, MD,
director of the Congenital Heart Program and Pediatric
Cardiology, then addressed ways to reduce trauma for
children suffering from congenital heart conditions. The
next session featured P.K. Shah, MD, Shapell and Webb
Family Chair in Clinical Cardiology and director of the
Oppenheimer Atherosclerosis Research Center, discussing
coming breakthroughs. Steven B. Rubins, MD, attending
cardiologist, shared a clinician’s perspective on the future
of heart disease prevention.
Heart to Heart Conversations are held by the CedarsSinai Heart Institute in recognition of American Heart
Month and give guests a unique opportunity to visit
with doctors in a nonmedical setting. The sessions pair
top cardiac physicians from the faculty and from private
practice to illustrate the collaborative teamwork that
fuels the Heart Institute’s growing success. The resulting
dialogues among participants and with guests are lively,
memorable, and, above all, informative.
Duets Against Cancer
The 2013 What A Pair! Benefit Concert provided fun-filled
music while raising funds for breast cancer research
and education programs at the Cedars-Sinai Samuel
Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute. Each year, this
Broadway-caliber production features duets sung by an
array of celebrities from television, film, music, and stage.
This year’s talent lineup included Taylor Dayne, Loretta
Devine, Joely Fisher, Mary Ann Mobley, Jamie-Lynn Sigler,
Lea Thompson, and Jennifer Leigh Warren, to name just a
few. Held at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica, the event
was chaired by Cookie Markowitz and her daughter, Tracy
Forester, and directed by Larry Carpenter.
The evening began with a silent auction and ended
with a reception following the concert. Angelini Osteria
and Vincenti Ristorante catered the event, providing fine
food to match the fine entertainment. Since its inception
in 2002, What A Pair! has raised more than $2.5 million to
fight breast cancer.

An Award from the Heart
The Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute honored Alain Carpentier,
MD, PhD, with the second annual Eliot Corday, MD,
International Prize in Heart Research. Considered the
leading pioneer in modern mitral heart-valve repair,
Dr. Carpentier’s innovations include using pig valves in
humans. This procedure reduces or eliminates the need for
patients to take blood thinners for the rest of their lives, as
required for artificial-valve patients. Dr. Carpentier serves
as president of the AcadГ©mie des Sciences at the Institut
de France and is a professor emeritus at the UniversitГ©
Paris Descartes and adjunct professor at Mount Sinai
Medical School in New York. During the ceremony, he
delivered a lecture about xenotransplantation, the transfer
of tissue or cells from one species to another.
“At Cedars-Sinai, where we have performed more
minimally invasive heart-valve procedures than any other
U.S. medical center, we rely on Dr. Carpentier’s pioneering
work every day,” said Eduardo Marbán, MD, PhD, director
of the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute and the Mark Siegel
Family Foundation Distinguished Chair.
The Corday Prize is named for the late Eliot Corday, MD,
a trailblazer in invasive cardiology who also served as chief
of Cardiology at Cedars-Sinai and as a member of the Board
of Directors. He collaborated on research that led to modern
stress testing and nuclear cardiology, and he contributed
to the development of coronary intensive care units. Dr.
Corday’s leadership had global impact, as he championed
increased federal funding for medical research and the
sharing of American cardiovascular expertise worldwide.
The Corday Prize is funded by a gift from Brindell Gottlieb
and her late husband, Milton.

Founded in 1957, Women’s Guild
has been a leader in providing
resources for a wide range of
programs at Cedars-Sinai. It
supports the pursuit of knowledge
and the development of diagnosis
and treatment methods that
will make a difference in the
lives of countless patients for
generations to come. To date,
Women’s Guild has raised more
than $40 million in support of
Cedars-Sinai’s most critical work.
In 2007, with a pace-setting $20
million pledge, Women’s Guild
set out to establish a worldclass research and treatment
center for diseases of the lungs

results in 2012 showed that stem
cell therapy reduces scarring and
regenerates healthy tissue after

Synthesis
True Blue
BY NORMAN SKLAREWITZ
One of our volunteers reports from the
weeklong celebration of Cedars-Sinai’s men,
women, and pups in aqua-blue coats.
1
O
n any given day, if you were to walk
into the Harvey Morse Conference
Center on the Plaza Level of CedarsSinai, you might find yourself in the
presence of luminaries such as Nobel laureate Stephen
Hawking or the Medical Center’s own eminent scientists
presenting their research to a sea of white coats.
But none are more important than the attendees
in aqua-blue coats who filled the auditorium on an
unseasonably warm day last spring. They are the men,
women, and teens who give so freely of their time
and talents to Cedars-Sinai, and the event — part of
Volunteer Appreciation Week — was a celebration of
their invaluable service.
There were hugs aplenty as volunteers spotted old
friends. Even the canine volunteers of the Pets Offering
Ongoing Care and Healing (POOCH) program joined
42
CATALYST WINTER 2013–14
the party, trotting alongside their owners. As everyone
took their seats for lunch, the dogs settled down
quietly, seeming to enjoy the festivities as much as their
human counterparts. At one table, Music for Healing
volunteer Rick Penn-Kraus entertained his companions
by playing the guitar.
Volunteers may not be involved in direct scientific
or medical achievements, but the services they provide
each day fulfill a vital role in advancing the well-being of
patients and their families. Every year, Cedars-Sinai hosts
a weeklong series of luncheons in appreciation of their
countless acts of kindness — feeding patients; delivering
flowers, magazines, and mail; calming anxious parents
whose children are in the ER; soothing stroke victims;
and encouraging heart transplant patients. Cedars-Sinai
volunteers do all this and so much more.
For Transforming Care at the Bedside (TCAB)
volunteers Linda Mendoza and Stephanie Castro, this
was the first Volunteer Appreciation Week lunch. They
both found the experience “very emotional.” “It makes
you so happy and appreciated,” said Linda. “And it’s
nice to meet others who are so focused on helping.”
Stephanie agreed: “Being here made me feel like part
of a family.”
As is the tradition, each luncheon began with an
invocation by Rabbi Jason Weiner, who recited the
Ha-Motzi, the Jewish blessing that thanks God for the
bread about to be served. As Rabbi Weiner explained,
the prayer’s meaning applies directly to the work of the
volunteers: “As wheat is turned into bread, so you turn
your time, talent, and compassion into the desire to
serve. To make a difference in so many lives is a blessing
that you give.”
As volunteers enjoyed kale and chicken salad, the
lights dimmed for a video presentation. Up on the large
screen, a dozen Cedars-Sinai volunteers — via footage
shot by NBC for its American Giving Awards show — 
spoke simply but eloquently about what volunteering
means to them.

S
ome of the stories were cheerful, others
poignant — such as one young volunteer
recalling his first day, when he sat with a
dying man until the patient’s family arrived.
Others told of the special satisfaction they gained from
rendering care and attention to those in need of both.
Without exception, all volunteers said they felt gratified
by giving freely of themselves to strangers whom they
likely would never meet again.
In her remarks to the group, Barbara Leanse,
director of Volunteer Services, applauded everyone
for their selflessness. “You are not looking for
acknowledgment or recognition,” she said. “You come
because you are interested in helping people, simply
to be available to help someone experiencing difficult
times. You come because it makes you feel good to
give, to help, and to be available for those who could
use a smile, a kind word, or just a moment in time.”
She concluded: “Cedars-Sinai is a place where
miracles happen as well as where life and death can
occur. You really do not know what type of situation
you will be confronted with, but we do know that
your emotions and heartstrings will be touched on any
given day.”
In addition to her moving speech, Leanse announced
a milestone: The number of volunteers has grown from
2,500 to nearly 3,000 since 2012.
As a volunteer in the Emergency Department, Linda
King is part of a small team and is ordinarily wholly
focused on her work. But attending the luncheon made
her feel part of a much larger community. “When I look
around, it makes me feel humble and proud to be part
of this wonderful group,” she said.

While Volunteer Appreciation Week is
designed to recognize the work of all CedarsSinai volunteers, the week’s daily lunches are
highly personal events for many.
This year marked the 10th such
celebration for Fay Block, and she wasn’t
going to miss it. “It’s fun to be here with so
many co-workers,” she said. “Ordinarily,
I don’t get to see a lot of these people, so
doing so at the lunch is very nice.”
For her part, Ruthie Krivis has not skipped
a single Volunteer Appreciation lunch in 32
years. “It’s like a reunion for me,” she said,
noting that she already knew all six of her
table companions.
This was the first Volunteer Appreciation
Week for Debra Davis, and she was impressed
that it was so “well organized.” As for her
work at Cedars-Sinai, she said it has been
“everything I expected and more.” — N.S.

adjoeman
Frank Stella, 2004
Stainless steel tubing and carbon fiber
On loan from Frank Stella, with special thanks to
Connie Lembark
Part of Frank Stella’s “Bamboo” series (2002–2007),
adjoeman means “showing off” or “decorative” in
Balinese. The piece was previously exhibited at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in a singleartist installation on the museum’s Iris and B. Gerald
Cantor Roof Garden. This 4,000-pound outdoor
sculpture, which resembles a sailing craft, is now
displayed at the corner of San Vicente and Beverly
boulevards.
Cedars-Sinai’s fine-art collection grew out of the
vision and generosity of Marcia Simon Weisman and
her husband, Frederick, who understood the curative
power of art and donated a number of pieces from
their own collection to the Medical Center. Today, the
world-renowned collection—all of it donated—includes
thousands of pieces, with an emphasis on contemporary
artwork by local established and emerging artists.
For more information about the collection or to make a
donation, call (323) 866-7798.
