Dan Bird
Tufts MC True Blue Recipient and 2018 Mary Jo Brown Customer Service Award winner: Dan Bird, Director, Volunteer Services
Nomination from Errol Norwitz, MD, Chair, OB/GYN:
“I am often approached by students wanting to volunteer at the Medical Center. My answer is always the same: meet with Mr. Daniel Bird. Even though he is busy, he will take the time to sit with you and find a position that best suits your interests and skills.
“Everyone I have sent his way has had a fantastic experience and found it enormously rewarding, including two of my own children.”
Nomination from Susan Blanchard, Vice President, Research Administration:
“Dan is in the business of delivering smiles and you can’t be in charge of delivering smiles if you don’t smile yourself—EVERY DAY! Dan is, day in and day out, one of the happiest people here. Every time I see him, he is smiling and helping someone.
“He spearheaded the writing of our history books published in recent years. He cares deeply about the history of our wonderful organization and works tirelessly to keep it alive and well.”
Congratulations, Dan!
