Richard Alan John Asher, FRCP (3 April 1912, Brighton – 25 April 1969, Marylebone) was an eminent British endocrinologist and haematologist.〔 As the senior physician responsible for the mental observation ward at the Central Middlesex Hospital he described and named Munchausen syndrome in a 1951 article in ''The Lancet''. ==Personal life== Richard Asher was born to the Reverend Felix Asher and his wife Louise (née Stern). He married Margaret Augusta Eliot at St Pancras' Church, London on 27 July 1943,〔GRO Register of Marriages: September 1943 1b 4 Pancras - Asher = Eliot〕 whereupon his father-in-law gave him a complete set of the ''Oxford English Dictionary'', which physician and medical ethicist Maurice Pappworth alleged was the source of Asher's "accidental" reputation as a medical etymologist.〔 〕 They had three children: Peter Asher (born 1944), a member of the pop duo Peter & Gordon and later record producer, Jane Asher (born 1946), a film and TV actress and novelist, and Clare Asher (born 1948), a radio actress. The Asher family home above his private consulting rooms at 57 Wimpole Street was briefly notable when Paul McCartney lived there in 1964-1966 during his relationship with Jane Asher. In 1964 Asher suddenly gave up his hospital post and perhaps all medical activities.〔 He suffered from depression in later life and reportedly died by his own hand at the age of 57.〔
