|a Lawrence Zelic Freedman was a forensic psychiatrist and a leading authority on the psychiatry of aggression, violence, crime, terrorism, and the interactions between psychiatry and the law. He was born on September 4, 1919 in Gardner, Massachusetts, the youngest of six brothers. He studied at Tufts University, where he earned a B.S. in 1940 and an M.D. in 1944. From 1942 to 1946 he served in the United States Navy, rising to the rank of Lieutenant. During this time he also completed his residency training in psychiatry at Yale Medical School. While in the Navy during World War II, Freedman was assigned to care for American serviceman imprisoned in military prisons, as well as German prisoners of war. These experiences stimulated his interest in the psychiatry of violence. Freedman joined the Yale faculty in 1949 as an instructor in psychiatry and mental hygiene. He rose to the rank of assistant professor in 1951 and associate professor in 1954. He spent 1958 as a research associate at Cambridge University, and was a research fellow in the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University from 1959 to 1960. In 1961, Freedman was appointed the Foundations Fund Research Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Chicago, where he remained for the rest of his career. Freedman's research interests were tied together by the common theme of applying psychiatric and psychoanalytic approaches to emerging social, legal, political, and behavioral topics. Throughout his career he conducted research studies on a variety of topics, including natural childbirth, human sexual behavior, criminal behavior, juvenile delinquency, terrorism, and political assassination, among others. He was also interested in using the tools of psychology and psychiatry to serve the common good. Freedman helped draft the Model Penal Code, which was adopted by the American Law Institute in 1962 to help state legislatures update their criminal codes. He also served on President Lyndon Johnson's National Commission on the Causes and Prevention of Violence, and developed a profile of potential presidential assassins at the request of the U.S. Secret Service. In the mid-1960s, Freedman became interested in the study of serial and mass murder. He conducted interviews with serial murderers John Wayne Gacy and Jeffrey Dahmer, as well as mass murderer Simon Peter Nelson, and testified at each of their criminal trials. Freedman was the author of over 100 publications and served as a consultant to many local, national, and international organizations concerned with violence, crime, and psychiatry. Following his retirement from the University of Chicago, he maintained a private practice in psychoanalysis. Lawrence Z. Freedman died of a stroke at his home in Chicago on October 6, 2004
