Hermann Nunberg

The late Hermann Nunberg (23 January 1884 in Będzin, Russian Empire, today Poland – 20 May 1970 in New York, USA) was a medical doctor, Freudian psycho-analyst, and author of Jewish origin.

Nunberg lived and practiced in Vienna, Austria, until 1932 at which time he migrated to the United States, where he lived and practiced in Philadelphia and New York.

Nunberg, in the course of his practice of psychoanalysis, had an adult male patient who had been circumcised at age five. Nunberg (1947) wrote a lengthy report on the effects of the circumcision on the patient's sexual feelings.
