CLIPS CONTACT	Ford Vox, M.D. is a physician and journalist living in St. Louis, Missouri. He was raised in Tuscaloosa, Alabama as Ford Baxter. He and historian Lisa Roy took up the new surname Vox in 2002 when they married. More people should do this, he advises: "Don't wait until you have too many legal entanglements. Names have to come from somewhere, why not you?" He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Rhodes College, and earned his doctorate in medicine from the University of Alabama. As a resident physician at Washington University in St. Louis & Barnes-Jewish Hospital, he is specializing in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. He has written health and medical science news features nationally (Newsweek, Slate, the Los Angeles Times), locally for The Telegraph, and is currently working on projects with other national publications. Dr. Vox maintains an interest in philosophy and at one time he promulgated a particular view, as some saw on CNN, or read about in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Seattle Times, Birmingham News, U.S. News & World Report, San Diego Union-Tribune and other outlets. Archival information about the Universist Movement, his failed three-year experiment in creating a "freethought religion," is located at universist.org.
