Autorenporträt
David A. Jones, Sr. was co-founder, CEO and chairman of the board of Humana. He retired in 2005. Bob Hill, a Louisville writer, helped Jones with this book. Hill has won many awards for his writing, including the Ernie Pyle Legacy Award, which recognizes the ability to connect with people and tell their stories. Hill did that for 33 years in 4,000 columns he wrote for the Louisville Times and Louisville Courier Journal, and in the ten books he has authored. This was a joyous project for both Jones and Hill, as they swapped stories and discovered similarities in their early lives. David A. Jones, Jr. (Editor), and family representative for his father's memoir project. David's current passions include improving end-of-life care for patients, their families and community caregivers; preserving, and learning to play, American roots music; supporting student-focused improvement in public education; and rejuvenating local journalism. He co-founded Chrysalis Ventures in 1993 in Louisville, KY, in the belief that focused financing for entrepreneurs was lacking "between the coasts." This belief arose early, as he watched his father found and lead Humana Inc. - whose board he joined in 1993 when the company exited its industry-leading hospital business and re-invented itself as an insurer. At Chrysalis David has partnered with young entrepreneurial companies in healthcare, education, telecommunications, and location-based entertainment. He's continued to serve on Humana's board, chairing it through the founders' transition and now leading its governance committee. He is the eldest son of David A. Jones, Sr. Jill Johnson Keeney (Editor) Founder of Moocow Communications, Editor and writer at New West, California, and Ms. magazines, The Louisville Courier Journal and a communications consultant at Humana.
