Prior to his diagnosis\, Alan led a successful career in film spanning over 40 years. Beginning in the 1960s\, he produced documentary films supporting the civil rights and feminist movements and critiquing the Vietnam War. Alan held executive positions at the Trans-Lux Corporation and Hallmark Entertainment Company\, where he produced films for television; and board positions at both the Sundance Film Festival\, of which he was a founding member and The American Film Institute. In his later years\, Alan taught cinematic history and film production at California State University\, Long Beach. As impactful as his professional accomplishments were\, those fortunate to know Alan remember his intellect\, warmth\, and humor. \nAlan spent his last years in North Carolina and was a patient at UNC Hospitals. Throughout his illness\, Alan maintained an interest in the science of his condition and a firm belief in the importance of humanism in patient care\, including end-of-life care. One of Alan’s final wishes was to establish a lectureship at the UNC School of Medicine to support the kind of compassionate care that he was so fortunate to receive. \nThe Department of Medicine is grateful for the generous donation by Alan’s family to establish the Alan Jacobs Memorial Lecture.
