Doris Kearns Goodwin studied at Harvard University in the 1970s, when the History Department there had turned to "psycho-history." She learned her profession from writers like, Erik Erickson and Fawn Brodie, who produced books that were part-history and part-psychology about Richard Nixon, Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther, and other great historical figures.
