Michelson, through a series of brilliant lawsuits became the richest man in 
L.A. and in the top 200 in the nation.................
Quotes:
There was nothing to do with that much money, the surgeon-inventor said, but 
give it away. Usefully.
 He set up the Medical Research Foundation Trust. And then â?? at just about 
the time the Los Angeles mayoral campaign between Villaraigosa and Hahn was 
nearing its conclusion, and as activists began to put stock in Villaraigosaâ??s 
vow 
to fire Stuckey â?? he started to focus his attention on animal issues.
 â??I got interested in this idea of converting â??animal controlâ?? to 
â??animal 
care,â??â?? he said.
 A spinal surgeon became absorbed in animal welfare? Michelson insisted he 
was not â??one of those bleeding-heart-type animal people,â?? but he spoke 
passionately of the â??two best catsâ?? he ever had, both of which were rescued 
feral 
animals.
 
At first he was looking for a nationwide approach, (I separated this for your 
attention.   First, L.A., then California, Next nationwideSH)
 but soon narrowed his focus on Los Angeles.
 
...................
The surgeonâ??s role would be through a foundation that is prepared to raise 
and donate $10 million to get dogs and cats sterilized and microchipped. He 
said 
he dreamed up the name of the foundation with the hymn â??Amazing Graceâ?? in 
mind. â??I once was lost,â?? the famous lyrics go, â??but now Iâ??m foundâ?? 
â?? in the 
sense that to be â??foundâ?? is to be saved. Gary Michelson, who wants to save 
the 
animals with microchipping and neutering, is naming his organization the 
Found Animals Foundation.
