He is a 2023 recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Doctors’ World Gala.
Katz has an extensive media portfolio, having served as a nutrition columnist for O, the Oprah Magazine; an on-air contributor for ABC News/Good Morning America; and with appearances on most major news programs and contributions to most major magazines and leading newspapers, including OpEds in the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.

His career-long focus has been the translation of science into action for the addition of years to life, and life to years, and on the confluence of human and planetary health.
On the COVID pandemic, he has advocated consistently for a policy of total harm minimization (https://www.truehealthinitiative.org/covid/) by means of risk-stratified interdiction efforts- and for addressing the “prior pandemic” of cardiometabolic disease that contributes so much to acute risk. These views were extensively covered in the New York Times.
Katz has presented at conferences in all 50 U.S. states and in multiple countries on six continents. Represented by the Harry Walker Agency, he has been recognized by peers as the “poet laureate of health promotion.”
He and his wife, Catherine, live in Connecticut. They have five grown children.
