(term expires 11/2026)
President
Larry is a gastroenterologist, although no longer practicing, and a former Professor of Medicine at the University of Texas, mostly at the McGovern Medical School in Houston, but also 4 years at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. His career was devoted to research, patient care and medical teaching. During his last 8 years in Houston, he oversaw a team of providers as Director of Gastroenterology at a large public hospital. Larry currently maintains his interest in medicine as a member of the Institutional Review Board at OHSU in Portland, reviewing ethical and regulatory issues involving clinical trials.
Originally from St. Louis, he holds degrees from Davidson College in North Carolina (BS), Vanderbilt University (MD), and Case Western Reserve University (MA in biomedical ethics). He had post-graduate training at Vanderbilt and the University of Iowa.
He and his wife Carol, an artist, discovered Oregon, and Astoria in particular, in 2005, bought property here in 2012, and have lived here full time for the past 3 years. Living next door to the Tillicum House, the Scotts have developed a strong relationship with KMUN and the remarkable staff and volunteers that make this station work. As a Board member, he welcomes the opportunity to commit his time and talents to continued success of Coast Community Radio.
