A Chaotic Life: Dr. Stanley Krippner | ASMAL ep. 68

Dr. Stanley Krippner joins us again, this time sharing astonishing stories from his new 3-part memoir, A Chaotic Life. “The episode begins with an introduction by Dr. Shawn Rubin, who served as Stanley’s personal editor for his memoirs at University Professors Press.” Dr. Krippner has participated in so many seminal historical events, it’s a bit like enjoying a trailer for a real life Forrest Gump documentary — only told by a brilliant, curious and socially gifted psychologist who has been everywhere in American culture and the world at large. At 91 Dr. Krippner, already the author of dozens of books and hundreds of articles, shares his participation in the 50s civil rights movement, 60s psychedelic movement, the rock and roll revolution, and his esteemed career in the field of psychology. He tells us of the time he spent with Dr. Martin Luther King at Northwestern, his many-year friendships with Timothy Leary and Jean Millay, and his enduring relationship with the Grateful Dead. We learn what he heard JFK say to Marilyn Monroe after she sang Happy Birthday Mr. President, of joyous LSD inventor Albert Hoffman’s 100th birthday party in Switzerland — and much more.
