Untold Story #75: Meet Ellen Agler World's Greatest Women

This woman moved around a lot as a child but didn’t seem to mind. She was curious, open-minded and adaptable and loved the diversity of life. As she grew, she thought she wanted to be a writer and started her first novel at age 8. As an adult her writing showed up in politics and in local papers. There was something about a story that drew her in and she found herself wanting to follow the story and be a part of the change it created. Her first global opportunity to experience such change on a large scale appeared in the area of public health and she was consumed with its ability to impact. Today she walks a path to greatness as the CEO of an organization working to end neglected tropical diseases that affect over 1.5 billion people. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Ellen Agler.
