Richard Howard Barrett (June 10, 1915[1] – December 24, 1994), was an American speech-language pathologist and co-author of two early textbooks on the subject of orofacial myology: Oral Myofunctional Disorders,[2] and Fundamentals of Orofacial Myology.[3] Barrett was a founding father of the professional association that would become the International Association of Orofacial Myology, and he served as its president from 1977 to 1979.[4] In his clinical practice he treated swallowing disorders related to muscular dysfunction and trained hundreds of other clinicians in the use of his techniques.[4]
