Basic Information
Born in Terre Haute, Indiana in 1959, Peter Thompson earned degrees from Loyola University and The University of Chicago Law School before embarking on a successful career as a corporate attorney.
In 1994, Thompson defended the Williamsburg Tobacco Company against a class action lawsuit filed by cancer victims. He then countersued and drove over 40 plaintiffs into bankruptcy. Thompson successfully defended Globoco Oil in 1998 against accusations of dumping carcinogenic industrial waste in the Florida panhandle. In 2001, Thompson was in southern Georgia and, while in the process of defending a nuclear power plant against widespread protests, his lifetime of smoking left Thompson with an impossible prognosis: inoperable lung and pancreatic cancer.
Thompson's search for a cure landed him at the Alvar Hanso Cancer Center in Geneva, Switzerland. Following a miraculous recovery, Thompson offered his expertise to Alvar Hanso, eventually becoming Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary of The Hanso Foundation. Thompson is also Acting Director General of the Global Health Consortium, replacing former Director General Jacques Maillot and his alarmist tone regarding The Hanso Foundation's research initiatives.
A direct beneficiary of Alvar Hanso's vision, Thompson works tirelessly to protect the Hanso Foundation's humanitarian efforts — his sweeping future for all.
