He was adjunct professor of political science at Rutgers University-Newark, New Jersey and of emergency medicine at the Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. A pioneer in developing the field of terror medicine, he was founding director of the Program on Terror Medicine and Security at the medical school. Cole was born Leonard Aaron Cohen in Paterson, New Jersey, on September 1, 1933. His father, Morris Cohen, was the owner of several delis in New York City and in New Jersey; his mother, Rebecca (née Harelick), was a housewife. Cole attended high school in his hometown and changed his surname during his youth due to fears of antisemitism. He initially studied at Indiana University, before transferring to the School of Dental Medicine at University of Pennsylvania. After graduating in 1957, he enlisted in the US Air Force and was posted to Japan for two years. Upon his return from military service, Cole was employed at a dental office in Berkeley, California, and obtained a undergraduate degree in political science from the University of California. He then returned to northern Jersey and established his own family dental practice in 1961. He later undertook postgraduate studies in political science and was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy from Columbia University in 1970. More information...
