As a physician & medical researcher, a psychiatrist, and then finally as a sport psych practitioner, Burt has made countless personal and career decisions that have lead to an astonishingly successful and inspirational life-long journey.
After receiving his MD in 1948 from NYU College of Medicine (and graduating first in his class) Burt was later elected as the President of the Honor Medical Society chapter. He's also a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychological Association (APA) and a Past-President of the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP).
