Historia biográfica
Marjorie Brierley was born in 1893. She qualified as an associate member of the British Psychoanalytical Society in 1927 and as a member in 1930. She practised psychoanalysis for around 20 years and during much of this time she played an active role in the affairs of the Society. She served on many committees and made a significant contribution to the Controversial Discussions held within the society during the 1940s, as well as being a training analyst, a control analyst and lecturer. Around 1950, she moved with her husband to live in the Lake District, after which she largely withdrew from the Society. She died on 21 Apr 1984.
