Joe Henderson died Nov. 24, 2007, after a short illness. He was 104 and had been active professionally as a Jungian psychologist until 2005.

Born in Elko, Nev., he attended Lawrenceville, where his tutor was Thornton Wilder *26. At Princeton, he majored in French literature and joined Charter Club. After graduation, he moved to San Francisco and became a drama critic and book reviewer.

Joe undertook analysis with C.G. Jung in 1929. He graduated from medical school at the college of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London in 1938 and opened a Jungian analysis practice in New York the same year. In 1940 he co-founded in San Francisco the first Jungian Institute in the West. There, during World War II, he evaluated military personnel returning from the South Pacific.

Joe was elected vice president of the International Association for Analytical Psychology in 1962. He served only one term, finding that he preferred writing to political activity.

Joe married Helena Darwin Cornford in Cambridge, England, in 1934 and they had a daughter, Elizabeth. Helena died in 1994 and Elizabeth in 2001. He is survived by two grandchildren, Julia Eisenman and Nicholas Eisenman, and by two great-grandchildren, Kate Elizabeth Behrman and Emma Rebecca Behrman, to whom we extend our smpathy.
