Carr, who directed the project, compiled and analyzed data, and wrote parts of the report; Erika Sward, who wrote and reviewed parts of the report; Josephine Ceselski, who helped coordinate field outreach and e-advocacy efforts around the report; Andrea Stansfield, MPH, who helped compile and review data for the report; Zach Jump who assisted with data entry; Susan Rappaport, MPH, who oversaw the data collection; Jean Haldorsen, who supervised production and scheduling for print and online editions; Tony Javed, who directed the report’s development online; Omar Cruz, who oversaw the website development for the report site; and Hallema Clyburn, who coordinated media efforts around the report.
In the nationwide American Lung Association: All Lung Association field offices wrote the Behind the Scenes for their respective states, gathered data for the report, and reviewed and commented on drafts of the report.Thanks also goes to staff with state health departments, state tobacco control programs, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and partner organizations for answering questions and providing information/data.
