Born and raised in New Paltz, NY, Larry Winters entered the United States Marine Corps after high school and served in Vietnam 1969-1970. Twenty-five years later, by then a licensed mental health counselor at Four Winds Hospital in Katonah, NY, the veteran returned to Vietnam with other heath care professionals to study Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in the Vietnamese people and to make peace with his past. Larry is a widely published poet, men's group leader and group psychotherapist. He has recently published his book titled "The Making and Un-making of a Marine".
Larry Winters has recently won favorable support from the Montrose Veterans Affairs Hospital in Peekskill, N.Y. After speaking at the hospital on two separate occasions where he addressed the staff, veterans, and the community on issues such as PTSD and the role of society in its healing, Larry was approached by a senior administrator and sold 80 books to the VA for their staff. He remains deeply appreciative that the VA holds strong interest in the voice of a veteran who's been on both sides of war, both as a soldier and a healer. Stay tuned to Larry's homepage for more announcements as he continues to garner support from the VA. You can help share his story by contacting your local VA hospital at www.va.gov and ask them to carry The Making and Un-Making of a Marine for their staff and the veterans they care for.
