He's been called the "Elvis of E. coli," the "Sinatra of Salmonella," and the "Artist Formerly Known as Prince of Pesticides" by various news media sources. To perform his duties in providing science-based food safety information, he has added a new wrinkle in information dissemination -- food safety music! Armed with a synthesizer, Dr. Winter performs musical parodies of contemporary popular music by modifying lyrics to make them appropriate to food safety issues such as bacterial contamination, irradiation, biotechnology, government regulation, and pesticides. He has educated and rocked audiences throughout the country with his interactive live performances while nearly twenty thousand of his self-produced CDs have been distributed throughout the world. He was recently awarded with a USDA grant to study the effectiveness of incorporating music into existing food safety educational curricula. He is also the 2003 recipient of the Hod Ogden Medal presented by the US Centers for Disease Control and the Association of State and Territorial Directors of Health Promotion and Public Health Education recognizing imaginative and creative efforts that have positively influenced the advancement of health promotion.
