Dr. van der Veen was born in Hallum, the Netherlands, April 1, 1918. He spent the first 34 years of his life in his homeland, graduating with honors from the University of Utrecht in 1946 and from the University of Amsterdam Medical School in 1949. Late in 1952, Dr. van der Veen came to the United States and early in 1953, began an internship at Trinity Lutheran Hospital in Missouri. The next six years saw training and service in obstetrics and gynecology, followed by a residency in psychiatry at Philadelphia's Temple Medical School. In 1966, Dr. van der Veen received a dual appointment to the medical staffs of Bridgeport Hospital and the Hall-Brooke Hospital, and in April of the following year, was named Acting Director of the Psychiatric Outpatient Clinic. Subsequent to his retirement from active staff duties in 1985, he continued to consult and contribute his extensive talents to the American Psychiatric Association, the World Federation of Mental Health and the Association for Advancement of Behavior Therapy. He enjoyed traveling and most especially his family. Dr. van der Veen is survived by his daughter, Yvonne van der Veen-Pierce, his son-in-law, Randall Pierce, and three grandchildren, Richon, Tara and Alexa, all of Brookfield; as well as a sister, Brecht Broersma, and brother-in-law, Jon Broersma; a sister-in-law, Wieke van der Veen; and seven nieces and nephews.
