Extract

Adolf Meyer was famous when 1 first met him in 1933. I was at that time a psychiatric resident at Bellevue Hospital, and Meyer was Psychiatrist-in Chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He had been asked by the sponsors of a fellowship I was given to act as guide and supervisor, and had agreed. I met and corresponded with him throughout the tenure of that fellowship, to 1940, spending a year in his department in Baltimore in 1938–1939, and saw him irregularly thereafter.
