Michael C. Latham (May 6, 1928 – April 1, 2011) was a Tanzanian-born professor emeritus at Cornell University.

Life

Latham was born in Tanzania in 1928. Latham studied medicine at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland for both his undergraduate (1949) and graduate (1952) degrees. Later, he graduated with a master's degree in tropical medicine from the University of London in 1958 and a master's degree in public health and nutrition from Harvard University in 1965.

Between 1955 and 1964, Latham worked for the Ministry of Health in Tanzania and served as its director of nutrition.

In 1963, Latham began advocating for the use of breastfeeding instead of infant milk formula, and after a decade of struggle, in 1981 he was able to regulate the marketing of infant formula.

To promote breastfeeding, he co-founded the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action in 1991.
