About John Rickman (psychoanalyst)

  • John Rickman (10 April 1891 – 1 July 1951) was an English psychoanalyst. John Rickman was the only child in an extended Quaker family and was throughout his life a practising Quaker.
  • His father ran an ironmonger’s shop in Dorking and died of tuberculosis when John was 2.
  • His mother never remarried, and the main male influences in his early life were his grandfathers.
  • John’s maternal grandfather was often unkind to him, something he recalled years later when in analysis with Sándor Ferenczi.
  • He was at Leighton Park, the Quaker school near Reading, along with two other leading members of the British Psychoanalytical Society, Helton Godwin Baynes and Lionel Penrose.
  • Rickman later studied Natural Sciences at King’s College, Cambridge, followed by Medicine at St Thomas’s Hospital in London.
