She succeeds Danny Silverman, chief medical officer and executive director of UHS since 2002, who resigned this summer to join Keeling & Associates, a higher education consulting practice in New York City. A national search is under way for a permanent successor.
Finnie, who earned her A.B. from Princeton in 1984, has been director of operations and associate director of UHS for the past seven years.
