From the Office of Communications:

"Anne's writing talents helped us better publicize the hands-on role CDC's disease detectives play in helping improve the public's health and safety. Following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the anthrax incidents through the U.S. mail, Anne captured the experiences of several CDC officers deployed across the country to assist local public health agencies. The profiles were posted online, which has helped the media and the public better understand CDC's emergency response capabilities through the eyes of our front-line personnel."

From CDC Employee Communications:

"It’s a pleasure to work with Anne. She is a key member of the writing team for CDC Connects, CDC’s online newspaper and intranet portal serving the agency’s 14,000 employees. Her friendly, pleasant manner ensures successful interviews and she has a wonderful writing style. She is responsive and her work is timely, regardless of the complexity of the assignment. She has profiled several CDC leadership team members, spotlighted CDC labs, reported on the latest vaccination recommendations and spotlighted the role of CDC quarantine officials in helping repatriate Americans returning from war-ravaged locations. Her personal and professional interest in public health issues makes her a dedicated and motivated team player."
