This memoir describes the relationship between Richards’ personal life and professional life inside and outside of psychoanalysis. The influence of his Russian Jewish father, an early Bolshevik who emigrated to America in the 1920s, contributed to his efforts for fairness and inclusion in psychoanalytic training. His independent and original psychoanalytic writings span Contemporary Freudian Conflict Theory, more recent theoretical developments, analysis of psychoanalytic institutions and their histories, and the development of the thought collectives that make up psychoanalysis. His life and its events are a fascinating look at an analyst’s self-identity and prolific professional life.

Learning Objectives: After attending this presentation, participants will be able to
– Describe the development of a psychoanalyst, based on their life from childhood to adulthood, including their professional experiences, that may lead to certain theoretical leanings and activism within and outside the profession.

– Identify what compels an author to write a memoir.
