Heinz Werner, a comparative-developmental psychologist who had emigrated from Europe in 1933, came to Clark in 1947 when the once-renowned psychology department was at a low ebb. Under Werner's leadership, the department reestablished its reputation as a center of research and graduate training. It is suggested that Werner's vision of psychology and graduate education led him to form a department that had a unique perspective and was, in many respects, ahead of its time. The question of Werner's position in relation to the mainstream is considered.
