Abstract

The beginnings of psychoanalysis in Los Angeles date to an informal study group in the late 1920s. By the mid-1930s a more formal group had been organized under the aegis of the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis, with Dr. Ernst Simmel, originally of Vienna, as the first of a number of highly-regarded European analysts who, once in the United States, migrated to California. The arrival of Dr. Otto Fenichel, the eminent analyst and prolific author formerly of Berlin, was another key addition; others included May Romm, Frances Deri, and Hannah Heilborn, whom Fenichel eventually married.

After formal organization, there came more branching out and more frequent meetings. There were a Literature Seminar for the general membership, the case reports and discussions for the practicing analysts, Educational Seminar and Social Workers Seminars.

Dr. Simmel arranged that all these activities were loosely linked and formally under the aegis of the Chicago Institute and later of the Topeka Institute (when it was founded in 1938).

Collection Historical Note

This Collection comprises documents related to the proceedings and discourses for the activity of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles. The documents are arranged in chronological order. The Collection encompasses original documents of the scientific meetings, executive council meetings, quarterly and annual business meetings, all in all for the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles. There is also the number of correlated correspondences with regard to the scientific activity of the given Group.

Before the arrival in Los Angeles in the late of 1927 of Thomas J. Libbin and his wife, Margrit Tobler Libbin (then Margrit Munk), there had been a few psychoanalysts in Southern California. Some were members of the American Psychoanalytic Association and some were doing psychotherapy, calling themselves psychoanalysts. These people among the others were Josephine Jackson, M.D. in Pasadena, Anita Muehl, M.D. in San Diego and E.J. Kempf and G.V.Hamilton, both M.D. in Santa Barbara. The latter two were regarded as successive private psychiatrists to a wealthy patient in Santa Barbara. There was, however, no organized psychoanalytic movement.

As Dr. David Brunswick wrote, “To be sure, door and window sign, such as ‘Come in, do it now,’ could be seen in various sections of Los Angeles, offering ‘Psychoanalysis Reading $ 3 or $ 5.’ But this, although, it was a State-licensed profession, belonged to the category of fortune telling or astrology or the like. There was also Mrs. Wilshire, an eclectic, largely a Jungian analyst, who apparently attempted serious therapy.”

The Libbons practiced Freudian psychoanalysis in Los Angeles seriously and sincerely and they formed a Psychoanalytic Study Group that later after Simmel’s arrival in 1934 became officially the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles. The Study Group met once a month to review the case material, theoretical papers and to attend the guest lectures.

Dr. David Brunswick related his recollections to the following initial members of the Psychoanalytic Group, as follows,

Along the original or early members of the Study Group were Arthur R. Timme, M.D., a Los Angeles psychiatrist; Gen Myers, M.D., owner and Chief Psychiatrist of Compton Sanitarium and various members of his staff; Paul S. Epstein, Professor of Theoretical Physics at California Institute of Technology, who had been psychoanalyzed in Zurich and understood psychoanalysis; Richard C. Tolman, Professor of Physics at California Institute of Technology, his wife Ruth S. Tolman, student of Psychology, who later received her Ph.D. Degree from the Berkley University; Eugene Ziskind, M.D., a known neuropsychiatrist who at almost every meeting demanded proof of the existence of the unconscious and he was not invited to retain his membership when the Study Group became officially recognized by Simmel. Lastly, there was David Wilson, a clinical psychologist who had worked with convicts in Leavenworth Prison and later wrote a book, “My Six Convicts.” He also did not retain membership in the Study Group.

David Brunswick, Ph.D., arrived in Los Angeles at the end of August of 1930. He had had training in Vienna. Mrs. Ruth Tolman introduced him to the Study Group in the autumn of 1930 and he became a regular member. He started a private practice in January 1931.

Marjorie Rosenfeld (then Marjorie Leonard) returned to Los Angeles in 1932, having had training in Berlin. She joined the Study Group and also went into analytic practice. In 1933, Estelle Levy arrived from Vienna where she had been trained and had been a member of the psychoanalytic community.

When the Nazis began to persecute and displace Jewish analysts in Germany (since 1933), the Los Angeles psychoanalysts saw a chance to invite one of the psychoanalytic professionals for further training and leadership. David Brunswick thought of Dr. Ernst Simmel whom he had met and liked at Tegel Sanitarium in Berlin, in the Spring of 1930. Dr. Brunswick was enthusiastically supported by Dr. Franz Alexander and Dr. Hans Sachs. The Dr. Ernst Simmel was invited on May 8, 1933, to come to Los Angeles.

As Dr. David Brunswick recalls, “…Only Thomas Libbin was opposed for he felt that if physicians were invited , then they may eventually oppose the Group and betray them as lay analysts, relegate them to back seat or even ‘put them out of business.”

The Group did not believe to that or were willing to take the risk for the real gain and on May 8, 1933, Dr. Brunswick wrote to Dr. Simmel on behalf of the Group. Dr. Simmel accepted the invitation and on April 27, 1934, he arrived in Los Angeles with his wife and two-year-old son.

Dr. Ernst Simmel took up the hold of the affairs with energy. He has managed to organize an official Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles. In the Summer of 1935, it was formally established as the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles with By-Laws, dues and officers. Dr. Ernest Simmel became President, Dr. Timme, Honorary President, Mrs. Libbin, Secretary-Treasurer and some other became Councilors. Soon after Dr. Ernest Simmel arrival, the practicing analysts had the opportunity to extend with him their own personal analysis.

In 1935, Mrs. Frances Deri arrived, formerly from Berlin, arrived in response to the invitation of Dr. Simmel. She was an important aid to Dr. Simmel in the Tegel Sanatorium. In turn, Mrs. Deri, with the support of the Group, invited Dr. Otto Fenichel who arrived in the Spring of 1938 and the nucleus for a future Institute was complete.

Undoubtedly, the Los Angeles Study Group was an embryo of an Institute, but it had to pass through a number of stages before an official Institute could be organized, recognized and eventually split.

Dr. Simmel arranged that all these activities were loosely linked and formally under the aegis of the Chicago Institute and later of the Topeka Institute (when it was founded in 1938).

A nucleus for psychoanalysis was getting started in San Francisco a little later, in the 1930s. Dr. Simmel and the others of the Los Angeles Study Group were in touch with the San Franciscans and Dr. Simmel was the initiator in starting the semi-annual joint meeting of the California psychoanalysts. These meeting eventually evolved into the annual joint meetings of the West Coast Psychoanalytic Societies.

The California joint meetings go back to 1938 or 1939. At one of such meeting in April 1940, in Ojai, Dr. Simmel gathered the Los Angeles Group together and launched the Psychoanalytic Institute Foundation of Los Angeles for the purpose of making the plans for an Institute and collecting funds for it. The Second World War made these plans of a lesser priority and only after the end of the War, the Institute was established in 1946.

The first headquarters and meeting place of the Study Group had been the house of the Libbins. After the formal organization in 1935, the headquarters were at Dr. Simmel’s home or office, with some meetings also at the homes of other early members.

In 1940 a nursery school applying psychoanalytic psychology, the School for Nursery Years, was founded with the help and encouragement of the Study Group. The Study Group agreed to pay part of the rental expanses for a house for the Nursery School and in turn received the evening use of the larger downstairs rooms. Admittedly, this house at 512 N. Rossmore Avenue was the first quasi-independent headquarters of the Psychoanalytical Study Group of Los Angeles.

With the coming of the Second World War, there was a sufficient number of qualified medical psychoanalysts in Los Angeles and San Francisco to form a Psychoanalytic Society. There was the number of young psychiatrists in and near these cities, in and out of the Army, seeking psychoanalytic training warranted thoughts of starting and independent institute. Dr. Ernst Simmel and his supporters in both cities included in the By-Laws for the new Society a provision for an Accredited Membership for the qualified non-medical psychoanalysts, giving them full rights in the Society. The Accredited Membership idea was vigorously fought by some at the Boston meeting of the American Psychoanalytic Association in 1942.

Dr. David Brunswick recall, “Not a long time after this, Dr. May Romm arrived in Los Angeles to settle and work here. She duly came to see Dr. Simmel and to join the Study Group. But Dr. Simmel remembered painfully l’affaire Montgomery. Again, however, he did not simply communicate quietly with New York to assuage his new found doubts. Instead he bluntly asked Dr. Romm for her credentials. She was quite offended, told him he could find out about her by writing to the New York Society. I am sure he apologized and also wrote the inquiry. But I have always entertained the impression that this occurrence was a seed for the later development of the ‘rebellion’ against Simmel in the second year of our Institute and later the split. It did not help either when at a Study Group meeting in an argumentative discussion with Dr. Romm, Dr. Fenichel referred to her as to Mrs. Romm. I think this is the custom in German in referring to a lady doctor, but the feeling about the gap between physicians and lay analysts was here too strong.

Dr. David Brunswick, “Forerunners of the Split”

His recollections, supplemented by the author consulting the early minutes of the Society and the Institute

“In June 1947, at the Annual Business Meeting of the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Society, the ‘opposition’ succeeded in shelving Dr. Ernst Simmel as President of the Society after a one-year term and electing May Romm in his place. Dr. Simmel was elected Honorary President. All of this was contrary to Simmel’s own wishes. I was not on the nominating committee (the next year I was) and I do not remember how this result was brought about or what measures, if any, ‘we’ used in attempting to prevent it. Dr. Simmel had been ill off and on since the preceding November and this was probably the pretext used in the making of the move, with the reason given of ‘sparing’ Dr. Simmel’s energies. But he did not want this and I know he was much upset by it.

The same pretext was certainly used in removing Dr. Simmel from the Chairmanship of the Education Committee at the Annual Election Meeting on July 7, 1947 at Dr. Simmel’s house. My impression is that the opposition had carefully planned their moves and according to my recollections our side had no suspicion beforehand of the move and we had no concerted plan of voting to forestall it.

I should have alerted Mrs. Deri and Dr. Levy at least. I was unaware at the time of the developing split and our side was naively unaccustomed to political maneuvering, causes and the like. As Ernst Levy would say, we did not know from nothing.

Now the seven members of the Education Committee were to elect their Chairman. Crotjahn nominated Dr. Levy. This was seconded. Levy and Greenson disagreed with this and Greenson nominated Dr. Simmel, duly seconded. It was a discussion by others on both sides of the question. Also, Dr. Levy definitely did not want to run against Dr. Simmel. But this time there was separate discussion among those on our side and the danger was seen that if Dr. Levy withdraw, Dr. Crotjahn would be nominated and could win. Then Dr. Levy did not withdraw and it came to vote by secret ballot. With only the seven Committee members voting, Dr. Levy was elected by 4 voters to 3. Certainly Dr. Simmel voted for himself and Dr. Levy did not vote for himself. If Mrs. Deri earlier had voted for herself for Education Committee member (the earlier same day vote), she would have been elected and the vote for Chairman would have turned out just the opposite.

Dr. Simmel was hurt and depressed by this outcome (in spite of the fact that Dr. Levy consulted with him as much as possible) and I have no doubts that it hastened his death that occurred on November 11, 1947. I know that once I visited Charles Tidd at his home to protest against the inhuman treatment of Simmel and to ask him to help in rescinding the ouster. But Tidd disagreed and felt that Dr. Simmel should be able to accept the reality of the situation.

There will be a sequel in this exciting serial story, in which I shall write how I became more sophisticated for the Society election in June 1948 and how in connection with a later election in the Education Committee I partly redeemed myself for my passive omission before and during that election of July 7, 1947.

Location, 961 S. Manhattan Pl., Los Angeles

Members in attendance, 33.

Dr. Simmel, presiding

Subject: Psychoanalysis and Psychiatry

Speaker: Dr. Arthur R. Timme, Los Angeles

Dr. Simmel, introductory remarks (extracts): “With today meeting, we are taking step forward in the development of the Psychoanalytic movement in this city. When we speak of a step forward, we imply that other steps have already been taken. Any scientific movement must advance step by step. There is no way of skipping steps by jumping or by using an elevator.”

All the emphasis these people lay upon ethical concepts, such as “prospectivity,” “finality,” etc., is nothing but a defense reaction against the fundamental truths of Freud, namely, that there is an unconscious upon which the personality is built; that the personality is a mobile function – an interplay of forces between instinct-dynamics and ego-defense.

As the by-laws show how we intend to work, so our working plan reveals what we intend to do. We expect mutually to help each other in extending our psychoanalytic knowledge through systematic discussion of fundamental psychoanalytic concepts.

Subject: Educational Group Therapy with a Psychoanalytical Background

Speaker, Dr. Augusta Alpert, Psychologist at Ethical Culture School, Brooklyn, N.Y.

Dr. Alpert works as part-time psychologist with approximately 150 children, ranging in ages between 3.5 years to 13.5 years.

In her three-year contact with the School she found that the relationship between the psychological and educational work became very intricate. The same problems came up among children in the same class room. Such problems would be handled through the teacher instead of the psychologist with definite directions from the latter.

Dr. Simmel pointed out that it was important to differentiate between what is therapy and what is education.

Prof. Paul Epstein presented a complete outline of Freud’s papers on Metapsychology

In conclusion Dr. Simmel remarked, “Before Freud studied the structure of the dynamics of the ego he was interested in what was conscious and what was unconscious. Making the unconscious -- the repressed – conscious was then purpose of analysis. The discovery of what is repressing made sequence of mental life possible for description by the dynamic, topic and economic viewpoint. The natural laws of these three aspects Freud calls Metapsychology, to differentiate between School Psychology.

Document in one page

The letter is with regard to a prospective lecture by Dr. Harold D. Lasswell to the members of the Psychoanalytical Study Group of Los Angeles to be held on December 20, 1935.

Excerpt of the content,

The Group is small, usually from 15 to 30 and they meet informally in Dr. Simmel’s study.

The Group is composed of six European trained analysts and the balance of the membership is made up of doctors, professional people and interested laymen who are quite well read in the field and most of whom have attended analytical seminars over a period of years.

RG-06.10, A letter from Dr. D.P. Wilson, Consulting Psychologist, 1021 W. 49^th Street, Los Angeles to Mrs. Margaret Libbin, 850 5^th Avenue, Los Angeles with regard to the enclosure of the telegram from Dr. Lasswell.

RG-06.11, Minutes of Executive Council Meeting for the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles

Date, January 17, 1936

Location, 961 S. Manhattan Place, Los Angeles

Document in two pages

In attendance, Dr. Simmel, Dr. Timme, Prof. Epstein, Dr. Brunswick, Mr. Libbin, Mrs. Libbin

Meeting, Dr. Simmel asked for suggestions and criticism on the scientific meetings. Prof. Epstein representing the Pasadena members expressed satisfaction. He proposed to omit intermissions after reading of the papers and let the discussion follow immediately.

Dr. Timme will make inquiries at the County Medical regarding rental or use of a room for monthly meetings.

Library

A special library fund is to be started. $ 30 is to be assigned to this fund out of the present cash reserve from membership dues. Dr. Timme will contribute several copies of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.

Program

Additional new topics for the meetings are suggested as follows,

<ul> <li> The present status of dream interpretation,</li> <li> Case histories from a theoretical standpoint,</li> <li> Application of Psychoanalysis to other fields,</li> <li> Small communications (for discussion)</li></ul> Activities of Study Group

Dr. Simmel briefly outlined three projects he had in mind:

<ol> <li> To develop facilities for the application of analysis for the treatment of psychosis and addiction,</li> <li> Prophylaxis</li></ol><ul> <li> Childanalysis,</li> <li> Lectures on psychoanalytic pedagogy,</li> <li> Teaching of analytical pedagogy to educators,</li> <li> Clinic: for treatment of indigents and research possibilities.</li></ul>

It is necessary to raise a fund for the development of these projects. A theoretical program will be required. Dr. Brunswick will draft the By-laws for a Foundation.

Compton and the Institute

The Psychoanalytic Department at the Las Campanas Hospital in Compton will be the initial step to the realization of the proposed projects. The Study Group should have a special interest in the Department because it will afford the opportunity to study and treat severe compulsion neuroses, character cases, psychosis and addiction.

Doctors Hehnels from Berlin who are to take charge of the Department will be particularly well suited due to their psychiatric and analytic training and experience. They will be able to both teach and represent Dr. Simmel. It is hoped that the Institute will eventually develop out of the Department.

The Department will also offer possibilities for research and experimentation with other but strictly psychoanalytic methods.

Prof. Freud’s Birthday

A committee is to be appointed to make plans for a celebration on Prof. Freud’s 80^th birthday.

Biographical Note

The beginnings of psychoanalysis in Los Angeles date to an informal study group in the late 1920s. By the mid-1930s a more formal group had been organized under the aegis of the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis, with Ernst Simmel, originally of Vienna, as the first of a number of highly-regarded European analysts who, once in the United States, migrated to California. The arrival of Otto Fenichel, the eminent analyst and prolific author formerly of Berlin, was another key addition; others included May Romm, Frances Deri, and Hannah Heilborn, whom Fenichel eventually married.
