IT’S STRANGE when you yearn to return to another time and place, realizing the past is not the way you tend to see it, and most likely not the way things occurred. On a recent late spring day I caught myself immersed with mixed emotions, mostly nostalgia, walking along the curvy brick wall that surrounds St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral on Mulberry St. David Bowie lived in Manhattan at 285 Lafayette Street from 1999 on. e back of his building faces that churchyard. I wondered, when Bowie sipped his morning tea, was this the view contemplated out his window? Maybe, or it’s just my imagination. Or maybe Bowie thought about the Venerable Pierre Toussaint, a devout religious Haitian once buried in St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral cemetery, who’s a current candidate for canonization. at’s when the Catholic Church declares that a person who has died is worthy of becoming a saint. Possible connections? Early one winter morning in 1990, in a crow’s nest seat facing Mulberry St., the graveyard visible from the top oors located in the Puck Building, I watched Toussaint’s body being exhumed. e Catholic Church started the disinterment on November 1st, “All Saints Day.” e purpose was to verify Toussaint’s remains before proceeding with the sainthood process. Pierre Toussaint was brought to NewYork City as a slave and eventually gained his freedom. He took the name Toussaint to honor Toussaint L’Ouverture, the leader of the slave revolution who liberated Haiti from the French. Toussaint is French, meaning “all saints.” All Saints was also the name of Bowie’s instrumental compilation released in 2001. I played that record for ve days straight aer 9/11. e album also includes an obscure song he wrote called All Saints . Cherry picking? You decide. In July 1895, Nikola Tesla was investigating and performing experiments with x-rays and a radio-controlled boat located in his 46 E. Houston St. laboratory, less than a city block away from where Bowie lived. In another strange twist, Bowie’s stunning portrayal of Nikola Tesla in the 2006 lm e Prestige , shows how his creative endeavors keep intersecting with the lives of his memorable neighbors. I worked for the New York Press during the 1990s as their founding art director in the Puck Building, a distinctive Romanesque revival landmark on the Houston and Lafayette St. corner. e Puck Building is awash in publishing and print history. Standing above the building’s entrance, the troublemaking gold cherub, “Puck” still greets you. e New York Press oces were on the ninth oor. e oces’ previous tenants, Vanity Fair ’s E. Graydon Carter and WNYC’s Studio 360 host Kurt Andersen, co-founded and produced Spy magazine in the same space. My publisher Russ Smith had Carter’s old oce, the oor’s prime location

with impressive city views. Looking west on Houston St., the architectural rm McKim, Mead & White’s elegant Cable Building sat nestled on the horizon. Carter greeted us with a kind gesture when we arrived: he le an excellent bottle of champagne. e “soon-to-be-lost” view from that room is one you never forget. is sweeping panorama included many other iconic residences and unusual sights: one could see Je Koons’ old studio on the corner of Broadway and Houston St. Koons’ Balloon Dog was in the making. And that’s where, “I spoke into his eyes” briey during an April Fool’s Day reception for Bowie’s 21 Publishing venture and Modern Painters Magazine. e Koons studio event was an art occasion Warhol would’ve adored. I’ll never forget the courteous and gracious handshake I received from a man wearing a stunning brown suit. Also, you could see Sonic Youth’s apartment across Layfayette St. and watch shoppers enter Keith Haring’s Pop Shop, next to an auto repair garage and a taxi-lled gas station. ose two buildings are gone, a sleek glass

and steel designed complex is currently under construction, and that stunning Puck view, will disappear forever. e Puck Building has undergone transitions too, now a jewel of Kushner Properties, it’s crowned with ultra- luxury rooop penthouses. A short walk down Jersey St., which runs parallel to the Puck, was e Magic

and I wonder if they only knew. Maybe not. e alley is eerily similar and feels like e Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust album cover. I hope I’mnot alone inmy veneration for David Bowie’s sainthood as I take the opportunity to reect, “just for one day.” > A version of this story rst appeared on Splicetoday.com *

47TH VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN AND DR. JILL BIDEN, CO-CHAIRS OF THE BIDEN CANCER INITIATIVE, TALKWITH BOARD MEMBER DR. DAVID AGUS AT A LAUNCH EVENT ON JUNE 26, 2017, AT FACEBOOK OFFICES IN NEWYORK, NY. PHOTO COURTESY BIDEN CANCER INITIATIVE

I know of no cadre of people in the world more desperately in need of hope than the sixteen million people with cancer,” Vice President Joe Biden told the nation’s leading cancer researchers and clinicians at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) in Chicago on June 6, 2016. e speech occurred a year aer the death of the Vice President’s own son, Beau, from glioblastoma, and six months aer President Obama, in his State of the Union Address, had asked Biden to lead a “Moonshot” against the nation’s second most deadly killer. “As I travel the world, and I’ve now traveled over a million, two hundred thousand miles as Vice President... with any leader I met, without exaggeration, the rst thing they said to me was, Mr. Vice President, before we begin, can I talk to you about your Moonshot?”

WESTONMAGAZINEGROUP.COM 37

e Moonshot was the latest salvo in a war on cancer that began when American troops were still on the ground in Viet Nam. Although Congress authorized the National Cancer Institute as part of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal in 1937, and later incorporated the agency into the National Institutes of Health, both the military language of the “war on cancer” and its rise as a matter of serious political concern originated in the Nixon Administration. In his 1971 State of the Union Address, President Richard Nixon declared, “e time has come in America when the same kind of concentrated eort that split the atom and took man to the moon should be turned toward conquering this dread disease. Let us make a total national commitment to achieve this goal.” What followed was the National Cancer Act of 1971, a law that both reorganized

continue to die each year of cancer—as many as perished in World War II, Korea and Viet Nam combined. In 2003, the head of the National Cancer Institute, Andrew Von Eschenbach, claimed that an additional $600 million in annual funding could eradicate cancer by 2010. Needless to say, that did not happen. While patients had beneted from major breakthroughs in the treatment of certain cancers, like some leukemia and lymphomas, mortality rates for others, like pancreatic adenocarcinoma, remained largely unchanged. Yet the highly public battles of long-serving Senators Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania against cancer, and the publication of Siddhartha Mukherjee’s e Emperor of All Maladies , a comprehensive, Pulitzer-Prize winning history of the war on cancer and its shortcomings, created a groundswell of renewed interest in the struggle.

Shortly aer announcing the Cancer Moonshot in his State of the Union address, an eort modeled on President Kennedy’s successful pledge to put a man on the moon by the end of the 1960s, President Obama established a task force in the Oce of the Vice President to recommend a new battle plan in the ongoing war on cancer. e eort also led to the creation of a blue ribbon panel of scientic experts, co-chaired by Dr. Tyler Jacks of MIT, Dr. Elizabeth Jaee of Johns Hopkins and Dr. Dinah Singer, Acting Deputy Director of the National Cancer Institute, whose seven working groups addressed specic research challenges. As the panel’s nal report noted, “e Cancer Moonshot has brought the entire cancer community, industry, and patients and families together

government eorts against the scourge and funded een new cancer research centers. Nixon’s eort made curing cancer a national priority—at least in theory. e following four decades have certainly witnessed signicant advances. Public health initiatives to drive down tobacco use and widespread screenings, such as mammography and colonoscopy, prevented countless cancer diagnoses and premature deaths. On the treatment front, researchers identied the genetic origins of cancer, most notably oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, while treatments advanced for some cancers to include targeted monoclonal antibodies and novel immunotherapies. By 2016, the federal government was spending $5.2 billion annually on cancer research. Yet for all of those eorts and advances, approximately six hundred thousand Americans

in a way that we haven’t seen before.” A Cancer Moonshot Summit occurred June 2016, drawing four hundred thought leaders to the nation’s capital and another 7,000 participants to three hundred local gatherings to brainstorm and exchange ideas. Even in a Washington beset by gridlock, lawmakers proved willing to take action. “e only bipartisan thing le in America is the ght against cancer,” Biden told audiences at the SXSW festival in 2017. One short-term product of the Moonshot was passage of the 21st Century Cures Act, bipartisan legislation signed by President Obama on December 13, 2016, that included $1.8 billion in new funding for the “Beau Biden Cancer Moonshot” as well as more controversial provisions designed to speed drug approval. When the Vice President le oce, he established the Biden Cancer Initiative to continue the eorts of the Moonshot

endeavor as a nonprot venture. e venture is being directed by Gregory C. Simon, the former executive director of the Moonshot Task Force, who previously served as Vice President Al Gore’s Chief Domestic Policy Advisor and as a senior vice president at Pzer, the pharmaceutical conglomerate. Of note, Simon is also a cancer survivor himself—having successfully defeated a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In a phone interview, Simon outlined the two underlying goals of the Initiative: to foster a sense of urgency behind the war on cancer and to generate more eective strategies for the ght. “We are not a funding organization,” explained Simon. “Our focus is on being a catalyst for change.” Simon sees the environment now as fundamentally dierent from what Nixon faced in 1971. “As Vice President Biden says,” he observed, “When President Nixon declared war on cancer, he had no weapons. He had no army of researchers trained in oncology. He had no winning strategy.” But forty-six years later, many aspects of the eort are being conducted using the same antiquated methods that had been state-of-the-art in the early 1970s. “We still do things by hand in an automated world,” Simon explained. “If any other business operated the way [the anti-cancer eort does], they wouldn’t be competitive in the market.” information make no sense. Similarly, access to clinical trials is oen illogically limited by demographic and geographic factors. Large swaths of the country, both rural areas and some urban centers, are what Simon calls the equivalent of “food deserts” for medical research. Simon foresees a world where patients receive care where they live, rather than having to travel great distances to enroll in drug trials. He also anticipates improved access to information, so patients can more easily make educated choices about treatment alternatives, and measures that will make medications more aordable. Earlier this year, at the Davos Economic Forum in Switzerland, Vice President Biden made an even more hopeful prediction: “I see the day when those younger people of you in this room, when you take your children and grandchildren later for their school physical, that they will—at the time they get their vaccination against measles and mumps, they’ll be vaccinated against certain types of cancer.” It is only fair to note that Vice President Biden’s approach to confronting cancer has been met with tempered criticism in some circles. Cancer researcher Vinay Prasad of Oregon Health and Science University, co-author Ending Medical Reversal: Improving Outcomes, Saving Lives , wrote in the Washington Post that the best way to cure cancer is to fund science across the board, rather than targeting cancer specically. He explained that “a serious moonshot would require funding science broadly, consistently and in steadily increasing amounts. is money would go to e core of the Biden Cancer Initiative’s mission is facilitating modernization and collaboration in both research and the delivery of care. One crucial aspect of this eort is the free exchange of >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Page 14 Page 15 Page 16 Page 17 Page 18 Page 19 Page 20 Page 21 Page 22 Page 23 Page 24 Page 25 Page 26 Page 27 Page 28 Page 29 Page 30 Page 31 Page 32 Page 33 Page 34 Page 35 Page 36 Page 37 Page 38 Page 39 Page 40 Page 41 Page 42 Page 43 Page 44 Page 45 Page 46 Page 47 Page 48 Page 49 Page 50 Page 51 Page 52 Page 53 Page 54 Page 55 Page 56 Page 57 Page 58 Page 59 Page 60 Page 61 Page 62 Page 63 Page 64 Page 65 Page 66 Page 67 Page 68 Page 69 Page 70 Page 71 Page 72 Page 73 Page 74 Page 75 Page 76 Page 77 Page 78 Page 79 Page 80 Page 81 Page 82 Page 83 Page 84 Page 85 Page 86 Page 87 Page 88 Page 89 Page 90 Page 91 Page 92 Page 93 Page 94 Page 95 Page 96 Page 97 Page 98 Page 99 Page 100 Page 101 Page 102 Page 103 Page 104 Page 105 Page 106 Page 107 Page 108 Page 109 Page 110 Page 111 Page 112 Page 113 Page 114 Page 115 Page 116 Page 117 Page 118 Page 119 Page 120 Page 121 Page 122 Page 123 Page 124 Page 125 Page 126 Page 127 Page 128 Page 129 Page 130 Page 131 Page 132 Page 133 Page 134 Page 135 Page 136 Page 137 Page 138 Page 139 Page 140 Page 141 Page 142 Page 143 Page 144 Page 145 Page 146 Page 147 Page 148 Page 149 Page 150 Page 151 Page 152 Page 153 Page 154 Page 155 Page 156 Page 157 Page 158 Page 159 Page 160 Page 161 Page 162 Page 163 Page 164 Page 165 Page 166 Page 167 Page 168 Page 169 Page 170 Page 171 Page 172 Page 173 Page 174 Page 175 Page 176 Page 177 Page 178 Page 179 Page 180 Page 181 Page 182 Page 183 Page 184 Page 185 Page 186 Page 187 Page 188 Page 189 Page 190 Page 191 Page 192 Page 193 Page 194 Page 195 Page 196 Page 197 Page 198 Page 199 Page 200
