I lived across the street from United Thera. a few years ago and met Rothblatt at a company party I walked into on the street. I googled her and read all the things in the article and was amazed at her life story . This happened before the party, as I was curious about the company right in front of my window. Was great to talk with her about the insane amount of hard work she had to do to save her daughter, etc. Everyone I met at UT said she was the best boss they ever had. They have a very startup type vibe at United Thera, and the buildings they constructed are amazing too ! Everytime I saw Rothblatt, there would be a circle of people waiting to talk to her, and fawning over her.

Its great to see this years later on yCombinator
