Author Biography

A board-certified psychiatrist and highly experienced teacher, Dr. Richard Gallagher is a professor of psychiatry at New York Medical College and a psychoanalyst on the faculty of Columbia University. He graduated from Princeton University in Classics, winning the Stinnecke Scholarship Award in Latin and Greek. After teaching and playing basketball in France, he returned to the United States to study medicine, eventually training as a psychiatric resident at Yale University. He is the longest serving member of the International Association of Exorcists since the early 1990s, and was for a time a scientific adviser to its board of directors. He has spent many years distinguishing the rare cases of overt demonic attack from medical and psychiatric disorders. In this trade, Dr. Gallagher has undoubtedly seen more cases of possession - many of them quite distressing - than any other doctor in the world. He lives in Westchester, N.Y., after serving for many years as the county's psychiatric emergency and crisis director.
