Jerome Bruner (b. Oct. 1, 1915 in New York) is a noted psychologist and educator. In describing his interests, he says, "I'm interested in the various institutional forms by which culture is passed on ... My preferred method of work . . . is the anthropological-interpretive." As Professor of psychology at Harvard (1952-72) and then as Watts Professor at Oxford (1972-80) and now at the New School for Social Research in New York City, he has been at the forefront of what is often called the Cognitive Revolution [taking off in the 1960s] - which today dominates psychology around the world. His numerous publications include Actual Minds, Possible Worlds (), Acts of Meaning (1987), and The Process of Education (2004). More information:
