Myrna M. Weissman, PhD, is Diane Goldman Kemper Family Professor of
Epidemiology and Psychiatry, College of Physicians and Surgeons and
the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University and
Chief of the Division of Epidemiology at New York State Psychiatric
Institute (NYSPI). She received her PhD in Epidemiology from Yale
University School of Medicine where she also became a professor.
Early on in her career she began working with Gerald
Klerman at Yale University on the development of IPT. Together they
carried out this work, testing IPT in several clinical trials of
maintenance and acute treatment of depression and modification for
primary care they
called Interpersonal Counseling. They published the first IPT
manual in 1984.
John C. Markowitz, MD, received his medical degree from Columbia
University and did his residency training in psychiatry at the
Payne Whitney Clinic of Cornell Medical Center, where he was
trained in interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) by the late Gerald L.
Klerman. First at Cornell and then at Columbia University/New York
State Psychiatric Institute, Dr. Markowitz has conducted
comparative studies of IPT, other psychotherapies, and medications,
studying mood, anxiety, and
personality disorders. He has received numerous grants from the
National Institute of Mental Health and other organizations, has
published several hundred articles and book chapters, and has
taught and supervised IPT around
the world.
Gerald L. Klerman, MD, was mentor of Dr. Weissman (his wife) and
Dr. Markowitz. He was convinced that interpersonal relationships
importantly influenced the course and recurrence of illness, and
that psychotherapy could potentially stabilize interpersonal
relations. Gerry was the force behind the original ideas in the
first Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) manual (Klerman et al.,
1984) and many of its adaptations. Gerry died young in April 1992.
Even years after his death, his
writing on IPT is pervasive. Gerry held numerous prestigious
positions in psychiatry and government. He graduated from New York
University Medical School and did his residency at Harvard. He was
professor at Yale
University, Harvard Medical School, and lastly, Weill Medical
College of Cornell University. He was appointed by President Carter
to lead the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration,
a position he held between 1977 and 1980.
