Dr. McCloud shares: I do not have children but I am close to my two nephews. Malcolm is a lawyer in New York and works for George Soros Open Society Foundation, which supports the development of vibrant and open democracies throughout the world. My younger nephew Paul was a fighter pilot for the US Navy for many years but has since entered private life managing a small business enterprise with his wife Gina in Houston, TX.

In my spare time, I enjoy classical music and opera. For several years, I have subscribed to the Metropolitan Opera House and enjoy six or seven operas a year with a friend. I subscribe to the Boston Symphony Orchestra concerts as well. I am an avid reader with a special preference for history and current events. Travel is my major passion!! I have visited over 20 countries and I have learned to appreciate a wide spectrum of cultures and the natural beauty of so many habitats from Mongolia to Chile!

I love restaurant dining and prefer French and Italian cuisine with fine wine (preference for French wines from Burgundy and Bordeaux).
