Hide Profile

Gregory Zilboorg was a psychoanalyst and historian of psychiatry whose writings and lectures situated psychiatry within a broad sociological and humanistic context. Zilboorg emigrated to the United States in 1919 and for a time translated plays from Russian to English while studying medicine at Columbia University. After graduating in 1926, he worked at the Bloomingdale Hospital and eventually established a psychoanalitic practice in New York City. From the 1930s onward, Zilboorg wrote books on the history of psychiatry, including The Medical Man and the Witch During the Renaissance (1935), History of Medical Psychology (1941) and Sigmund Freud (1951).
