According to the Associated Press, "Koop was the only surgeon general to become a household name" due to his frequent public presence around the HIV/AIDS crisis of the 1980s. Koop was known for his work on tobacco use, AIDS, and abortion, and for his support of the rights of children with disabilities. Read more on Wikipedia
