There’s a tendency to think of Fraser Mustard as a one-note advocate for early childhood education. In fact, his crusade to give all children a good start began late in his long and varied career. He began at a laboratory bench as a research hematologist working on cardiovascular disease – a medical problem primarily connected with old age – and moved outward to embrace social, economic, educational and environmental studies. That knowledge and experience drew him back to the earliest stages of life as the key intervention point to maximize human development.
Mustard came to believe that health care was but a small part of the answer in producing healthy, productive and engaged citizens.
