Leonard Jan Le Vann
Dr. Leonard Jan Le Vann (1 August 1915 – 29 September 1987)〔Le Vann, L. J. (n.d). Medical History. Red Deer Archives〕 was the medical superintendent at the Alberta Provincial Training School for Mental Defectives (also known as the Michener Center)〔Heather Pringle. (1997, June). Alberta barren. Saturday Night, 112(5), 30-39. Retrieved March 29, 2011, from CBCA Reference and Current Events. (Document ID: 123821)〕 from the years 1949–1974. Although he was born and raised in the United States, Le Vann trained as a physician in Scotland.〔 Throughout his career Le Vann wrote many articles, the majority of which were published during his 25-year career at the Provincial Training School. These articles covered a broad range of topics that include alcoholism, schizophrenia and experimental treatments of antipsychotic drugs.〔Le Vann, L. J. (1953). A clinical survey of alcoholics Canadian Medical Association Journal, 69(6), 584-588,〕〔Wahlsten, D. (2003). Airbrushing heritability Genes, Brain and Behavior, 2(6), 327 329. 〕 In 1974 Le Vann resigned from the training center, which was due to the Conservative Party of Alberta’s repeal against the Sexual Sterilization Act of Alberta.〔 Furthermore, there has been plenty of controversy about how he ran the school. This controversy has been brought to attention mainly because of the Leilani Muir trial that took place in 1995. Although Le Vann was already deceased at the time of the trial, his name was brought to the court’s attention on many separate occasions.〔Muir v. Alberta (1996) , 132 D.L.R. (4th) 695〕

His studies were briefly interrupted when he joined the Spanish Civil War as an anesthetist. Once he returned from the war he became a Junior House Surgeon, Royal Infirmary for the department of Neurosurgery in Edinburgh.〔 Then, in 1943 he completed his training and graduated from Lincentiate Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh Scotland. Upon graduating, Le Vann performed one year of general practice in England during WWII at which time he was awarded a medal for bravery.〔 In 1944, Le Vann moved to Essex, England; he began to practice psychiatry as a postgraduate student. Le Vann held the position at Sevealls Mental hospital in Colchester, Essex, UK for four years before moving on to a new endeavor.
In 1948, Le Vann moved to Canada and began to practice psychiatry at the Brandon Mental Hospital in Manitoba. Finally, in 1949 he was hired as the medical superintendent for the Provincial Training School.〔
