Herriot Tabuteau ‘89 “was born in Haiti, where his birth mother struggled to raise him and his sister. He recalls experiencing neglect of all kinds—“physical, nutritional, emotional”—but “it taught me resilience,” he says now. At age 9, he moved with his dad and adoptive mom to Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Degrees in molecular biology and biochemistry from Wesleyan led him to Yale’s School of Medicine, where he planned to become a neurosurgeon.”
