Just found this but haven't had a chance to listen to it, 18 January 2005. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/stor ... Id=4457033
David Marcus again spoke on NPR/Morning Edition on 20 April 2005.

David Marcus is the author of the book.  Could have been written about any number of emotional growth/behavior mod programs.  This particular one just happens to be one of the Aspen Education Group.   Academy at Swift River has an on line forum where parents can check in to see how their child is doing.
