Quote:
The psychiatrist and broadcaster Professor Anthony Clare has died suddenly at the age of 64.
Professor Clare had been due to retire from St Edmonds Bury hospital in Lucan in County Dublin in two months' time.
He became known to millions through his BBC Radio 4 show, In the Psychiatrist's Chair, and his extensive media work.
He has also written several popular books on psychiatry, and was professor of clinical psychiatry at Trinity College Dublin.
Professor Clare came to public prominence hosting a feature on Radio 4's Stop the Week programme, in which he interviewed various high-achievers about their past.
Eventually, one of his patients complained that he seemed to focus too much on people without any significant problems.
Professor Clare responded by launching the long-running In the Psychiatrist's Chair in 1982.
