INFO: Morton Alfred Seidenfeld, Request for Information/Assistance

Dear Division 20 members:

For my presidential address for Division 26 (History) at next year's APA, I am trying to learn more about a former Division 20 President, Morton Alfred Seidenfeld (b. 1904).

In 1945 he played a key role in opposing Jewish quotas in clinical psychology education that were being proposed by the editor of the Journal of Clinical Psychology.

Any reminiscences, obituaries and such will be welcome. I am not a subscriber to this list and ask that a copy of any postings be sent directly to me.

Thank you!

Regards,

--
