“Pershing had his own take on the financial dispute, but he also had bigger goals, which he spelled out in a Feb. 25 email to Vivian Lee, then the University of Utah Health Care CEO. He wondered if there were a way to agree to Huntsman’s demands “but take total control of all cancer operations within the university.” “I mean so Mary really works only for you,” Pershing wrote to Lee, “and we somehow also get control of the fundraising.”
This exchange was among nearly 200 pages of emails obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune through an open-records request.”
