In this first program of the Psychoanalysis Today Series, Dr. James Gooch will describe his original despair in finding a psychoanalysis that could encompass fundamental emotions and truth of experience in an alive and responsive clinical setting.  He discovered one answer in his second analysis with Dr. Wilfred Bion, as recommended by Dr. Albert Mason.  Thereafter, he took the leadership, along with other seekers of truth, in developing psychoanalytic programs encompassing the clinical approaches of Melanie Klein, Donald Winnicott, Wilfred Bion, and Francis Tustin.  Every program with which he was involved included the analysis of children as well as adults - Reiss Davis Child Study Center and California Graduate Institute Department of Psychoanalysis.  In these creative endeavors, he received enthusiastic help from Donald Meltzer and Martha Harris.  The end result, in company with the efforts of other courageous psychoanalysts and psychoanalysts-in-training, was the formation of the Psychoanalytic Center of California - first the Society, then the Training Institute, eventually the Infant, Child, and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Program, and the Infant Observation Program.  In the first morning session, he tells this story of transformations of this creative enterprise out of a hostile environment.
