Popis: The psychology and law community lost one of its pioneers, Bob Buckhout, on December 10, 1990. Bob died at the Hackensack Medical Center in New Jersey of complications after pneumonia. Bob was an accomplished Dixieland jazz piano player and played on a weekly basis with the Canal Street Band at restaurants in New York City. He liked to tell of having once sat in with Woody Allen. Professionally, Bob was a Fellow in the American Psychological Association and a member of the Eastern Psychological Association and the New York Academy of Sciences. He received his Bachelor's degree from Queens College, his Master's from North Carolina State, and his Ph.D. in Psychology from Ohio State University, where he was a student of Delos Wickens. He taught at Washington University in St. Louis, the University of California at Santa Cruz and Berkeley, and at California State University at Hayward. At the time of his death, Bob was professor of psychology at Brooklyn College, and was the founder and director of the college's Center for Responsive Psychology. He was also the editor and publisher of Social Action and the Law, the Center's journal. At the time of its inception in 1974, Social Action and the Law was the first publication devoted exclusively to psychology and law issues (Law and Human Behavior began publication in 1977). For many years, free subscriptions to the journal were provided to anyone in jail.
