Alma H. Bond, PhD, is a psychoanalyst and the author of 24 published books. She received her Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology from Columbia University, graduated from the post-doctoral program in psychoanalysis at the Freudian Society, and was a psychoanalyst in private practice for thirty-seven years in New York City. She "retired" to become a full-time writer, but now maintains a small practice in addition to writing. Alma's latest book, "Barbra Streisand: On the Couch," was just published by Bancroft Press to superb reviews. Her book, "Margaret Mahler, a Biography of the Psychoanalyst," received two awards: Best Books Award Finalist, USA Book News; and Foreword Magazine s Book of the Year Finalist. Her Maria Callas book, "The Autobiography of Maria Callas: A Novel," was first runner-up in the Hemingway Days novel contest. Her other published books include: The Deadly Jigsaw Puzzle, Murder on the streetcar, Who Killed Marcia Maynard?, Camille Claude: A Novel; Old Age is a Terminal Illness; Who Killed Virginia Woolf?: A Psychobiography; Tales of Psychology: Short Stories to Make You Wise; I Married Dr. Jekyll and Woke Up Mrs. Hyde; Is There Life After Analysis?; On Becoming a Grandparent; America's First Woman Warrior: The Story of Deborah Sampson (with Lucy Freeman); and a children's book, The Tree That Could Fly. Dr. Bond also wrote the play, Maria, about the life and loves of Maria Callas, which was produced off-off Broadway and is currently touring Florida. It will be performed in England in 2016. Dr. Bond is a member of the American Society of Journalists and Authors, the Dramatists Guild, and the Authors Guild, as well as a fellow and faculty member of the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research, the International Psychoanalytic Association, and the American Psychological Association. Dr. Bond is the widow of Rudy Bond, the acclaimed stage, screen, and television actor, and author of I Rode a Streetcar Named Desire. She is the mother of three children, Zane P. Bond, Jonathan H. Bond, and Janet Bond Brill, all of whom are published authors, and she is the proud grandmother of eight, none of whom has published a book . . . yet. But, as a wise friend of Alma's put it, "In her family, it's pretty much publish or perish." For more information, Alma Bond's website: Http://almabondauthor.com
