Lorna Smith Benjamin, PhD, received her doctorate in psychology from the University of Wisconsin in 1960. Her primary advisor was Harry F. Harlow. After 4 years of internship and postdoctoral clinical training in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin, she became a faculty member in the department. For the next 18 years, she taught and supervised psychology interns and psychiatry residents while maintaining a full-time private practice. In 1987, she moved to the University of Utah at Salt Lake City where she began a different kind of academic career that emphasized research in psychopathology and psychotherapy. It was here that she developed her interpersonal model of personality and personality assessment, the structural analysis of social behavior (SASB). The model is also useful in choosing and tracking therapeutic interventions. Dr. Benjamin received an honorary degree from the University of Umea in Sweden for her work with the SASB. She has lectured extensively throughout the United States and abroad. In addition to her academic position at the University of Utah, she currently has an active consulting practice with the University of Utah Hospital, supervises and trains therapists, and maintains a private practice. She is the author of numerous journal articles, book chapters, and books and is currently at work on two new volumes.
