Karl Augustus Menninger (July 22, 1893 – July 18, 1990) was
an American psychiatrist and a
member of the Menninger family of psychiatrists who founded the Menninger Foundation and
the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas. Menninger was born on July 22, 1893 in Topeka,
Kansas, the son of Florence Vesta (Kinsley) and Charles Frederick
Menninger. In addition to studying at Washburn University, Indiana University and
the University of
Wisconsin–Madison, he also studied medicine at Harvard Medical School. He
graduated from the school cum laude in 1917. While at Washburn, he was a member of the Alpha
Delta Fraternity, a local group. In 1960 he was inducted into the
school's Sagamore Honor Society. Beginning
with an internship in Kansas City, Menninger worked at the Boston Psychopathic
Hospital and taught at Harvard Medical School. In 1919, he
returned to Topeka where, together with his father, he founded the Menninger Clinic. By 1925, they
had attracted enough investors, including brother William C. Menninger, to build
the Menninger Sanitarium. His book, The Human Mind, which
explained the science of psychiatry, was published in 1930. The Menninger Foundation was
established in 1941. After World War II, Karl Menninger was instrumental in founding the
Winter Veterans Administration Hospital, in Topeka. It became the largest
psychiatric training center in the world. He was among the first members of
the Society for
General Systems Research. In 1946 he founded the Menninger School of
Psychiatry. It was renamed in his honor in 1985 as the Karl Menninger School of
Psychiatry and Mental Health Science. In 1952, Karl Targownik, who would become
one of his closest friends, joined the Clinic.
