About the Author Robert Fleisher was born in Arlington, Virginia, a sleepy suburb of Washington, D.C.s political elite. Soon after, his family relocated to Philadelphia where he was encouraged to become a standup comic in order to avoid the toils of physical labor that his ancestors were forced to endure as subjects of Czarist Russia. Ignoring their plea, he went on to obtain an education and become a professional. After receiving his Bachelor of Arts in psychology and his D.M.D. at Temple University, Dr. Fleisher attended the University of Pennsylvania where he received his specialty training in endodontics.
