I've done a lot of creativity research (see, e.g., There's No Such Thing as Creativity: How Plato and 20th Century Psychology Have Misled Us. Cambridge University Press, 2022) and dabbled in some other areas (e.g., Are We Free? Psychology and Free Will. Oxford University Press. 2008). Much of my teaching has focused on teacher training. See http://users.rider.edu/~baer/ for more information. My wife (also a D'port fellow, although never a D'port student because when we went to college many decades ago Yale allowed no female undergraduates) and I have taught college-credit courses (The Development of Children's Imaginations and Multi-Dimensional Children's Literature) at Disney World, a place we both love.
I also love and play a lot of tennis.
