Bruce Kodish had the privilege of studying and working as a colleague with some of Alfred Korzybski's closest co-workers and their students and co-workers, at the Institute of General Semantics (IGS) during the period of its post-Korzybski but still quite korzybskian heyday in the final decades of the 20th Century, Bruce served for many years on the staffs of the IGS seminar-workshops, the General Semantics Bulletin, and Time-Bindings, the IGS Newsletter. He helped edit the Fifth Edition of Korzybski's Science and Sanity, and as publication chairman oversaw the production of the Third Edition of Korzybski's Olivet Lectures, as well as the books Developing Sanity in Human Affairs and General Semantics in Psychotherapy. He received a PhD in Applied Epistemology/General Semantics from the Union Institute and University in 1996. With his wife Susan Presby Kodish, he wrote the renowned introduction to korzybskian general semantics, Drive Yourself Sane: Using the Uncommon Sense of General Semantics, recently published in its Third Edition. Susan and Bruce received the Institute's J. Talbot Winchell Award in 1998 for their "... many contributions severally and together to the wider understanding of general semantics as authors, editors, teachers, leaders." Recognized today around the world for his authoritative knowledge of Alfred Korzybski's life and work, Bruce spent seven years researching and writing this first book-length biography which contains many never-before-told details of Korzybski's extraordinary career. A physical therapist in Pasadena, California, Bruce also wrote Back Pain Solutions and Dare to Inquire.
