Edward (Ned) Hallowell Biography

Edward (Ned) Hallowell is a child and adult psychiatrist and the creator of the Hallowell Centers, which include locations in Sudbury, Massachusetts, New York City, San Francisco, and Seattle. These institutes focus on employing a strength-based approach to diagnose and treat learning problems, including ADHD and dyslexia. Dr. Hallowell, a graduate of Harvard College and Tulane Medical School, as well as a Harvard residency and fellowship in adult and child psychiatry, spent 20 years on the faculty of Harvard Medical School before retiring to devote his full professional time to see sick people, writing books, and giving workshops and tutorials. Dr. Hallowell, a learning disabilities expert, is best known for his groundbreaking New York Times best-seller Driven to Distraction, which brought attention deficit disorder to the general public in 1994. He went on to write 19 more books on a variety of psychological topics, including several more books on ADD, the transformative force of connection in human life, how to deal with worry, how to forgive, how to raise children to become the adults we hope they will become, how to run organizations so that each employee achieves at their peak, and his most recent book on how to achieve focus. Dr. Hallowell's publications have sold over 2 million copies worldwide. He's featured on Oprah, Good Morning America, The Today Show, CBS Morning Show, The View, Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil, 60 Minutes, and CNN, among others. Dr. Hallowell's strengths-based approach has made a significant contribution to the area of education. He regards ADHD and dyslexia as qualities that may bring great advantages, rather than problems because he has both and has flourished with them throughout his life. If certain characteristics are well-managed, they can boost one's chances of success. However, if they are badly handled or not identified at all, they may be disastrous. The implications are quite high. As a result, Dr. Hallowell takes a messianic approach to spread the word about how to detect and capitalize on these characteristics, which he refers to as "The American Edge." Dr. Hallowell always comes off as honest, funny, candid, and enthusiastic about his vocation, whether treating ADHD in his clinics, writing about the vast variety of issues he tackles in his books or speaking from the numerous platforms on which he's appeared.
