Bruno Bettelheim


 

Bruno Bettelheim (August 28, 1903 - March 13, 1990) was a Jewish-American writer and child psychologist. Upon his father's death, he was forced to leave university in order to care of his family lumber business. After ten years, however, he returned to his education, earning a degree in philosophy, and authoring a dissertation on the history of art. Although interested in psychology for much of his life, Bettelheim never studied it formally.
