It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Dr. Roy Grant, UGA Music Therapy’s Clinical Director from 1978-2001.

In addition his scholarly work, he also mentored a generation of clinical training directors and academic program directors. In recognition of his impact on the music therapy profession, he was awarded the AMTA Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002.
