Charles Crissman has spent a good portion of his life fighting poverty and hunger around the world. For the past 22 years, Crissman, 57, has been researching and decoding the genetic make-up of a very particular specimen: the potato. Potato production has steadily increased where it matters most: poor countries. "Since there are more potatoes being produced in developing countries, they are a very important crop for food security and poverty reduction," said Crissman, who is the director of research for the International Potato Center.
