Hartvig Dahl (United States) was a graduate of the Residency Program of the Menninger Foundation, Topeka Kansas.
In 1964 he received a Public Health Service Research Scientist Award from the National Institutes of Health and joined the Research Center for Mental Health at New York University, working with Robert Holt and George Klein.
In 1972 he joined the faculty of the Department of Psychiatry at the SUNY Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York, where he established his Research Unit for the Study of Recorded Psychoanalysis.
He was a graduate of the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute
and later became a member of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and Society where he served as Director of Research.
A very sad loss. Hartvig was deeply dedicated to psychoanalysis and science; he worked, wrote and debated with passion, and made outstanding contributions. He will be missed but his contributions to understanding the complexities of the psychoanalytic and the therapeutic process more generally will be cited for many years to come.
Hartvig was very special--a very talented and deeply dedicated investigator who in many ways never really received the recognition that he so very much deserved.
His work was ground breaking!!
