Paul Henry O’Neill served as the 72nd United States Secretary of the Treasury for part of President George W. Bush’s first Administration. He resigned in December 2002 under pressure from the administration and became a harsh critic. O’Neill was chairman and CEO of Pittsburgh-based industrial giant Alcoa from 1987 to 1999, and retired as chairman at the end of 2000. In 1995, he was made chairman of the RAND Corporation.

In December 1997, O’Neill, together with Karen Wolk Feinstein, President of the Jewish Healthcare Foundation, founded the Pittsburgh Regional Healthcare Initiative (PRHI). They assembled a wide-ranging coalition of healthcare interests to begin to address the problems of healthcare, as a region. PRHI adapted the principles of the Toyota Production System into the “Perfecting Patient Care”. Mr. O’Neill became a leader locally and nationally in addressing issues of patient safety and quality in healthcare. O’Neill was also pegged by Mayor Tom Murphy as a co-leader of Pittsburgh’s Riverlife Task Force. In 2005, O’Neill entered closed-door meetings with the Pittsburgh Gambling Task Force to help them reach a “no-endorsement” stance on what casino to recommend.
