Seriously, Marty Gelman is the nicest person you'll ever meet. Verified in an independent poll of everyone who knows Marty.

He is currently retired after practicing Radiology in a community hospital as well as at the University of Utah. He and his wife, Sheila, who is a realtor, developed a passion for Utah after serving 2 years at Hill Air Force Base during the Viet Nam War and moved to Salt Lake City in 1971. Marty and Sheila have 3 married children and 6 wonderful grandchildren. Marty is currently president of the United Jewish Federation of Utah and a member of the Holladay Interfaith Council.
Marty's international experience includes teaching Radiology for a month at Moi University Medical School in Eldoret, Kenya as part of a global medicine exchange.
Marty just completed a Master Gardener course through the Utah  State University extension service and is attempting to learn Bridge with his wife.  He and his wife, Sheila, enjoy skiing, hiking, camping, bicycling, snorkeling  and travel as well as their Old English Sheep Dog, Panda Bear.
