It's All in the Family
Like the Barrymore's, some families are rich with passion, talent, and distinguished careers within the same field. Such was the path for four members of the Schlachter family in the practice of mental health serving children and families. William (Bill) Schlachter grew up in the Bronx in New York City with his younger brother Roy. Bill went off to SASS and graduated in 1952. Before following in his older brother’s footsteps, younger brother Roy married Lillian Glassberg, another New Yorker with the goal of becoming a child and family therapist. The couple went off to Cleveland, and Roy graduated from SASS in 1959. Lillian waited until their three children were of school age, and then she began classes at SASS, graduating in 1976. Their eldest child, Scott, followed in their footsteps, graduating in 1984. Read more.
