## Bio

Erich Seligmann Fromm was born March 23, 1900, a German Jew who trained as a psychoanalyst and sociologist before the Nazi rise forced him out. He fled to the United States and co-founded The William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis and Psychology in New York City, joining the intellectual orbit of the Frankfurt School of critical theory. His work fused psychoanalysis with humanistic philosophy and democratic socialist thought, examining the psychological costs of capitalism and mass society. He spent decades writing and teaching, probing the gap between what people have and what makes them whole. Fromm died March 18, 1980, five days before his eightieth birthday.
