Having escaped following Lenin's takeover, Zilboorg requalified in medicine at Columbia University and underwent analysis with Franz Alexander at the Berlin Psychoanalytic Institute. His American patients ranged from wealthy and artistic figures such as George Gershwin and Lillian Hellman to prison inmates. His writing includes important histories of psychiatry, for which he is still known, as well as examinations of gender, suicide, and the relationship between psychiatry and the law. His socialist politics and late work on Freud's (mis)understanding of religious belief created a wide circle of friends and acquaintances, from members of the Warburg banking family to the Trappist monk Thomas Merton.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on previously unpublished sources, including family papers and archival material, \u003ci\u003eThe Life of Gregory Zilboorg, 1890-1940: Psyche, Psychiatry, and Psychoanalysis\u003c\/i\u003e offers a dramatic narrative that will appeal to general readers as well as scholars interested in the First World War, the Russian revolution, the Jewish diaspora, and the history of psychoanalysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaroline Zilboorg\u003c\/strong\u003e is a life member of Clare Hall, Cambridge University, and a scholar of the British Psychoanalytic Council.
