Werman, David: - David S. Werman was born in NYC in 1922. After serving in WWII, he earned a BA from Queens College and went on to receive his MD at the l'Université de Lausanne in Switzerland. He worked as an obstetrician and gynecologist, and in 1970, changed specialties, settling in at the Department of Psychiatry at Duke University where he taught and practiced psychoanalysis until his retirement in 1992. His professional accomplishments were recognized when he was inducted as a Fellow into the American College of Psychoanalysts. Werman returned to his native New York in 1998, where he lived until his death in 2014. Werman's life-long love of art led him, perhaps inevitably, to the work of James Ensor. Ensor's visions are filled with meaning and double-meaning, fantasy and fear, irresistible for a man who was an MD, a psychoanalyst, a musician, and a lover of art.
