Francisco, and a well-known anti-tobacco activist and writer. In 1994, Glantz donated to the UCSF Tobacco Control Archives
his research files based on copies of internal tobacco industry documents, which are known as the Brown & Williamson Collection.
He is the a co-author (with John Slade, Lisa A. Bero, Peter Hanauer, and Deborah E. Barnes) of
The Cigarette Papers (Berkeley: University of California Press, c1996), and numerous articles based on the Brown & Williamson industry documents,
as well as a series of reports on the tobacco industry and anti-tobacco activities around the country.
Glantz received a Ph.D. in Applied Mechanics/Engineering-Economic Systems from Stanford University in 1973 and stayed at Stanford
