Memorial of Dr. Edward (Ted) Carr
Pioneer Psychologist Transformed Understanding and Treatment of Autism Behaviors
The autism community lost a great leader this weekend, Dr. Edward Carr, who was killed by a drunk driver the afternoon of June 20, 2009. Dr. Carr, the Leading Professor in the Department of Psychology at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, was a top advisor to the Autism Society. We are deeply saddened by the loss of our friend and colleague and his wife, Ilene Wasserman, who was also killed in the crash, and we send our thoughts and prayers to their family.
In Dr. Carr's honor, the Autism Society has set up a Tribute page for colleagues, friends and admirers to post their thoughts, messages and memories of Dr. Carr. The page will be shared with his family and colleagues.
