Finding the Right Keys to Unlock the Door
As a young man, Bob served two years in Virginia and North Carolina
as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints. Afterwards he continued his studies at the University of
Utah, where he majored in sociology and philosophy, receiving his
bachelor′s degree in 1958. There he met the love of his life, Carol
Jean Cook, who was Bob’s right arm throughout his distinguished
career at UCLA. Bob and Carol Jean were married in May of 1958. Bob
then served in the Army and earned a master′s degree from the
University of Utah in 1959, followed by a Ph.D. in sociology from
Washington State University in 1964. He and Carol Jean lived in
Washington, Iowa (Iowa State University), and North Carolina
(Bowman Gray School of Medicine, Wake Forest University), before
settling in the Los Angeles area, where they raised their seven
children.
In 1970 Bob joined the faculty in the Department of Psychiatry and
Biobehavioral Sciences at UCLA and the Neuropsychiatric Institute,
now the Jane and Terry Semel Institute of Neuroscience and Human
Behavior. For 35 years he conducted research, published articles
and books, served in administrative and service capacities
(including the IRB Committee), taught classes, and provided
