Untold Story #104: Meet Dr. Cheri Cannon

This woman grew up in a very conservative family. In this environment she was taught to be independent and competitive. She was never in the typical school clicks but was seen as a leader in many school activities. As a young girl, she wanted to be a veterinarian but in high school changed her mind and decided to pursue medicine. In medical school, there wasn’t many women and men seemed to hold the power. So, she adopted a male like behavior and became one of the guys. And as she moved through the years, her career in medicine and a successful support system continued to evolve. Today she is not only the chair of radiology of a prominent medical hospital, but is also a champion of developing women leaders. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Dr. Cheri Canon.
