  • Title: A.J. Ladman: managing editor of The Anatomical Record, 1968-1998.
    Author: Haines DE.
    Journal: Anat Rec; 1998 May; 251(1):2-8. PubMed ID: 9605213.
    Abstract:
    In the period 1906-1998, The Anatomical Record has had only six managing editors. One of these individuals, A.J. Ladman, served in this capacity for 30 years, almost a full third of the history of this journal up to 1998. Ladman received his Ph.D. degree from Indiana University in 1952, was at Harvard for 9 years (1952-1961) and at the University of Tennessee from 1961-1964. He became professor and chairman of the Department of Anatomy at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine in 1964. In April 1968, Ladman was appointed managing editor of The Anatomical Record by the American Association of Anatomists (AAA). He brought energy and innovative ideas to the journal and would apply those in the changes he instituted over the years of his tenure. In April 1998, after 30 years of exemplary service to this journal and to the AAA, Ladman passed the responsibility on to Roger Markwald. During his career, and in addition to his editor's work, he conducted research on an impressively wide range of topics, served as an elected officer in several professional organizations, and was founding chair of anatomy at New Mexico. He went to Hahnemann in 1981, served as Dean of the School of Allied Health Professions (1981-1986), and is currently adjunct professor of neurobiology and anatomy. The AAA expresses its sincere appreciation to A.J. Ladman for his excellent stewardship of The Anatominal Reord.
