Marshall Rosenberg (October 6, 1934 – February 7, 2015) was an American psychologist. He was the creator of Nonviolent Communication, a communication process that "helps people to exchange the information necessary to resolve conflicts and differences peacefully." He was the founder and former Director of Educational Services for the Center for Nonviolent Communication, an international non-profit organization.[1]
Biography
Rosenberg was born in Canton, Ohio. His parents, Jean (Weiner) Rosenberg and Fred Rosenberg, moved to Detroit, Michigan one week prior to the race riots of 1943. He graduated from Cooley High School in Detroit.
In 1961, Rosenberg received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Wisconsin–Madison where he studied under Carl Rogers[2] and in 1966 was awarded Diplomate status in clinical psychology from the American Board of Examiners in Professional Psychology. He lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where the Center for Nonviolent Communication's office is located. He died at home on February 7th, 2015.[3]
Education
While Rosenberg is most well known for his work with conflict resolution through his system of "life-serving" Nonviolent Communication (NVC), he has also made education reform a major component of his work.[citation needed]
Reception
According to Albert Ellis, Ted Crawford, who wrote a book Making Intimate Connections with Ellis, "particularly liked the anger-resisting philosophy of Marshall Rosenberg and made presentations on it."[4]
