  2. Jonathan Fielding, the public's MD

    If you've got your health, the cliche goes, you've got just about everything. If you've got public health duties, you're responsible for just about everything from mosquitoes (West Nile carriers) to hygiene (wash your hands for as long as it takes to sing &quot;Happy Birthday" twice). Dr. Jonathan Fielding heads <a href="http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/">L.A. County's Department of Public Health</a>, which is bigger than some states' health departments. A pediatrician by training and the head of the county's health programs since 1998, Fielding is such a believer that he and his wife, Karin, turned savvy investments into a $50-million gift last year to UCLA's School of Public Health. Here he takes the temperature of the medical and political aspects of his work.

Because of this balanced approach, we're on the verge of eliminating Maryland's long-standing structural deficit, we have achieved the No. 1 public schools in the country for five years in a row, and since 2007, we've done more than any other state in the nation to hold down the cost of college tuition.
