Abstract
Dr. Irwin Braverman, a luminary in our field of dermatology, united his love of internal medicine with dermatology to pioneer our understanding of the cutaneous manifestations of systemic disease. His meticulous documentation of physical examination findings in his book Skin Signs of Systemic Disease became fundamental to the training of dermatologists worldwide for decades. In the context of autoimmune connective tissue diseases, Dr. Braverman's powerful observation skills proved pivotal in charting the clinical signs and symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis. His legacy as a trailblazer in clinicopathologic correlation continues to influence younger dermatologists, emphasizing the crucial role of connecting pathologic findings in the skin to systemic pathology in providing outstanding patient care. We highlight some of Dr. Braverman's personal interests and contributions to lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis.
