- Ethel Spector Person was born in Louisville, Kentucky. Her father Louis Spector owned a speakeasy, where she observed uninhibited, alcohol-fueled, sexually-charged behavior. Her mother Anna Zimmerman was a mathematician with a master’s degree, unusual for a woman at that time. Ethel earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Chicago in 1956 and a medical degree from New York University College of Medicine in 1960. She married three times, to engineer Allen Person; psychiatrist Barry Sherman; and lawyer Stanley Diamond.
Dr. Person became a psychiatrist and with her colleague Dr. Lionel Ovesey studied the development of transgender people. She also researched the role of sexual fantasies in people's lives, love triangles, and women's sexual needs.
Dr. Person wrote and edited several specialized studies of Freud. Many of her professional books and texts are still in use, including The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Psychoanalysis, which she edited with Arnold M. Cooper and Glen O. Gabbard.
She was the co-editor of Women--Sex and Sexuality, with Catharine R. Stimpson (1980) and Passionate Attachments: Thinking About Love, co-edited with Willard Gaylin (1988). She also wrote for general interest publications, and was the author of four books accessible to general audiences: By Force of Fantasy: How We Make Our Lives, (1996); The Sexual Century (1999); Feeling Strong: The Achievement of Authentic Power (2002); and Dreams of Love and Fateful Encounters: The Power of Romantic Passion (2006).
