Lee Canter, the developer of Assertive Discipline ® and Classroom Management for Academic Success, has enjoyed a lengthy career as a creator of cutting-edge training programs for educators. Lee attended California State University, and then completed a master's degree in social work at the University of Southern California. In 1970 he began serving as a psychiatric social worker for children in southern California. He soon realized that if teachers were trained to manage their students' behavior, they could have a positive impact on those students' lives. Lee's passion for helping children succeed in the classroom led to the research and development of his well-known Assertive Discipline ® program, which has sold more than 1.5 million copies and trained more than a million teachers. He has authored more than 40 best-selling books for educators, including Succeeding with Difficult Students ®.
