Description

Amy E. Tanner (1870 - 1956) was an American psychologist noted for investigation of spiritism. With a doctoral degree in philosophy from the University of Chicago, she became an "Honorary University Fellow" at Clark University. While at Clark, she investigated mediumship with the psychologist G. Stanley Hall. She wrote the book Studies in Spiritism (1910) which documented the tests she and Hall had carried out in the seance sittings held with the medium Leonora Piper. After leaving Clark University, she became the director of the Worcester Girls Club for many years and represented the local Woman's Club on the Worcester Censorship Board.
