Richard Green (born 6 June 1936) is an American sexologist, psychiatrist, lawyer, and author specializing in homosexuality and transsexualism, specifically gender identity disorder in children. Green is the founding editor of the ''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' (1971), and served as Editor until 2001. He is also the founding president of the International Academy of Sex Research (1975),〔http://www.open.ac.uk/socialsciences/identities/profiles/r_green.pdf〕 which made the ''Archives'' its official publication. He served on the American Psychiatric Association DSM-IV Subcommittee on Gender Identity Disorders.〔 ==Education and career== Green was born in Brooklyn, New York.〔Peacock S, Editor (1997). ''Contemporary Authors''. Vol. 159, p. 157. Gale, ISBN 0-7876-1862-4〕 He earned his BA from Syracuse University in 1957, his MD from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1961, and his J.D. from Yale Law School in 1987. During his medical studies at Johns Hopkins, Green met John Money, who was an assistant professor there, and started collaborating with him on research, initially on boys displaying substantial cross-gender behavior. In Money's obituary, Green acknowledges Money and Robert Stoller, as well as his father, Leo H. Green, for having set the course for his life and career. In the mid-1960s, Money introduced Green to Harry Benjamin, whom Green acknowledges as having "further honed" his career. In 1969 Green and Money co-edited "Transsexualism and Sex Reassignment", published by Johns Hopkins Press. Green was founding editor of ''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' in 1971, serving as Editor for 30 years. In 1974 Green and the board of the new journal established the International Academy of Sex Research, with Green as the founding president; the ''Archives'' became the official publication of the Academy.〔Green R (1985). The International Academy of Sex Research: In the beginning. ''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' 14: 293–302.〕 The new organization had a more selective membership than Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality (SSSS), which published the leading US sexology journal of the time, ''The Journal of Sex Research''. The IASR membership has a more medical and biological emphasis, and only accepts applications from published researchers. The IASR also has a more international approach, alternatively meeting in the US and other countries every year. Eventually, the ''Archives'' became a premier journal in its field.〔 Green retired as Editor of ''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' in 2001 and Editorship was continued by Kenneth Zucker.〔Green R (2001). A 30 years' thank you. ''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' 30: 633–637.〕 In 1979 Green was a founding committee member of the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association and served as president from 1997–1999. He previously directed the human sexuality program at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.〔Brody, Jane E. (26 January 1982). (Psychiatrists on homosexuality: Vigorous discord voiced at meeting ). ''New York Times''〕 He has been Professor of Psychiatry at the University of California, Los Angeles, Professor of Psychiatry at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and Professor of Psychological Medicine, Imperial College, London. He was on the faculty of Law at UCLA and Cambridge. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists since 1994.〔http://www1.imperial.ac.uk/medicine/people/richard.green/honours_awards/〕 Green served as President of HBIGDA, now known as World Professional Association for Transgender Health, from 1997 to 1999. Clinical vignettes from Green's work on gender identity disorder appear in widely used textbooks, such as ''Kaplan and Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry'' (10th ed.) The term "gender identity disorder" itself introduced in DSM-III was taken from Green's 1974 work.Sexual Identity Conflict in Children and Adults. New York, Basic Books.He served on the American Psychiatric Association DSM-IV Subcommittee on Gender Identity Disorders.〔Bradley SJ, Blanchard R, Coates SW, Green R, Levine SB, Meyer-Bahlburg HFL, Pauly IB, Zucker KJ (1991).

''Archives of Sexual Behavior'' Volume 20, Number 4 / August 1991〕 In 2006 he was awarded the Magnus Hirschfeld Medal for Sexual Research. Green was research director and consultant psychiatrist at the Gender Identity Clinic at Charing Cross Hospital in London and Senior Research Fellow, Institute of Criminology, Cambridge and Member of Darwin College, Cambridge.
