Silas L. Warner (1924–1993) entered Princeton University from Choate Rosemary Hall in June 1942, and graduated in 1945 after his first year at Northwestern Medical School. As a student he wrestled and played varsity soccer, football, tennis and hockey. His internship and residency were done at Menninger School of Psychiatry. Dr. Warner had a consulting relationship with Swarthmore College while being senior attending psychiatrist at Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia. His first marriage, (1950–62) to Lee Drummond, and then 1963 Silas wed Libby Severinghaus Dingle.

A dedicated researcher and writer, Silas co-authored a major work on personality disorders. His other published works dealt with how preschool children learn, and the relationship between truth, reality, lies and delusions. Among his written articles was a major feature in "The New York Times" on cocaine use in professional sports. Shortly after his death in San Francisco on November 20, 1993, a paper of his was presented to the American Psychological Association (APA) which dealt with the life and career of Dr. Joseph Cheesman Thompson, a psychoanalyst who had had considerable influence on the founder of Dianetics.^[1]
