Dorian Feigenbaum

Dorian Aryeh Feigenbaum (born May 19, 1887, in Lemberg, Austria-Hungary; died in 1937) was an Austrian psychoanalyst and the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the academic journal The Psychoanalytic Quarterly.

He was graduated in medicine from the University of Vienna in 1914 and studied at the German Institute for Psychiatric Research (German: Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Psychiatrie) in Munich, under the pioneering psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin.[1]

Feigenbaum served as the director of Esrath Nashim[2] (The Hospital for the Mental Diseases) in Jerusalem and as psychiatric consultant to the Government of Palestine[1] until he was fired by the hospital board in 1924.[2]
