“I have had the pleasure to work with Deborah for over 8 years on NIH-funded research involving HIV and reproductive health, primarily in sub-Saharan Africa but also here in Los Angeles.  Deborah not only brought her methodological expertise in ethnographic analysis and innate sensitivity to cultural influences, but also a passion for work that serves the marginalized and underprivileged.
