Henry Freund

1896-11982

Henry Freund was born in Yugoslavia and educated as a physician in Vienna. He was a neurologist, a psychiatrist, as well as a speech pathologist. He served as director of various speech clinics in Europe where he also engaged in a private practice of logopedia (speech pathology). For approximately 25 years he worked in the United States in the area of mental and emotional disorders. He served as Chief of a Veterans Administration Hygiene Clinic in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Freund died in 1982. After his death, his friend Charles Van Riper published an essay by Freund in which he describes his career and his speech therapy for his stuttering problem (Van Riper, 1984). His therapists were famous European speech pathologists (The Gutzmanns, Emil Froeschels, Alfred Appelt).
