Gilligan, Carol (1936– ) psychologist; born in New York City. She studied English at Swarthmore (B.A. 1958), psychology at Radcliffe (M.A. 1961), and clinical psychology at Harvard (Ph.D. 1964). After working as a lecturer at the University of Chicago (1965–66), she began teaching at Harvard (1967).
