He earned his MD from NYU College of Medicine in 1954, followed it with internships in New York and Baltimore, and finally with a research fellowship in rheumatism at London University in England. Baum was the director of the Arthritis Clinic at Parkland Hospital in Dallas, and also taught at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School between 1959 and 1968, when he returned to New York to the University of Rochester School of Medicine. In 1970 he became director of the Pediatric Arthritis Unit at Strong Memorial Hospital and stayed there until his retirement in 2008, except for a teaching stint at the University of Birmingham in England from 1987 to 1989.
