His rich and varied professional life has included stints at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland and at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington, D.C., together with a small, ongoing private practice. Dr. Long also worked for VISTA, Teacher Corps, the Peace Corps, and the D.C. Prison System. In his private life, Dr. Long has had a wide range of interests, including politics, sports, cards (especially poker), jogging (he has run several marathons, and still jogs occasionally and goes to the gym), theology, and ever increasingly, spirituality. The first ten years of his life (he is the fourth of five children born to American parents) were spent in Brazil, and he is a member of what has now become a very large extended family, with relatives living in various parts of the world. He helped to raise four children, and has lost two wives to brain cancer. Dr. Long is currently working on another book, "Bugiganga," which is the story of a magical country on the west coast of Africa.view less
