Medical Doctor/Pioneer, Philanthropist. Chief of Plastic Surgery at NYU Medical Center, he was a world-renowned plastic surgeon specializing in craniofacial reconstructive surgery. He created many pioneering techniques in surgery, some of which bear his name. Having witnessed the suffering of those with facial deformities, he established the National Foundation for Facial Reconstruction. Assembling skilled craniofacial teams, their mission was to support and treat patients with craniofacial deformities regardless of severity or financial concerns. As founding director of the Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at NYU Medical Center, his philanthropic mission continues. Approximately 1500 children with varying craniofacial deformities are treated each year at the Institute, many of them requiring twenty or more surgeries. He was also the editor of a 7-volume textbook on plastic surgery and co-author of The Surgical Treatment of Facial Injuries which has become a standard reference source for surgeons. Married from 1964 until his death to Veronica B. Cooper (widow of legendary film actor Gary Cooper).
