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. Lee and Marlene Canter are known nationally for their professional development programs for educators. Their work in education and parenting has been covered extensively by the news media, and Lee has been a guest speaker at numerous educational conferences. The Canters have written more than 50 books and produced more than 10 video programs geared to helping educators and parents raise happy, responsible children.
