Nathan Winograd has been rescuing injured and homeless creatures since he was a boy. So no one should have been surprised when he left his job as a corporate lawyer to run an animal shelter. It meant giving up lots of perks and moving his family from sunny California to Tompkins County, New York, known for its harsh winters. Today, thanks to Winograd's revolutionary ideas, it's the first no-kill county in the United States.
