Martin S. Bergmann (February 15, 1913 – January 22, 2014) was a clinical professor of psychology of the New York University post-doctoral program where he taught the course on the history of psychoanalysis. He was a major voice in the post-Freudian analysis and authored books on human conditions like the Holocaust, the phenomenology of love and child sacrifice.[1] He was a member of the International Psychoanalytical Association and an honorary member of the American Psychoanalytic Association.[2] In the wake of 9/11 he wrote an article concerning its implications on psychoanalysis called "Psychoanalytical Reflections on September 11, 2001". [citation needed] He was the son of Hugo Bergmann,[3] a Prague-born Israeli philosopher, and father of Michael Bergmann.
