Perhaps until you read this article, you have been unaware of<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Group</strong> Foundation for Advancing Mental Health (Foundation)<br />
talented, stylish, creatively smart, and infinitely generous mo<strong>the</strong>r/<br />
daughter duo. They are renowned in <strong>the</strong>ir own right both as individuals<br />
and as a united pair. They, however, do not stand in <strong>the</strong><br />
spotlight on <strong>the</strong> AGPA stage; instead <strong>the</strong>y channel tremendous<br />
undertakings behind <strong>the</strong> scenes for our benefit.<br />
Ruth Hochberg, PhD, CGP, DFAGPA, and her daughter<br />
Phyllis Hochberg Siegel, Esquire, are <strong>the</strong> down-to-earth personalities<br />
behind <strong>the</strong> AGPA Annual Meeting’s Mitchell Hochberg<br />
Memorial Public Education Event. Toge<strong>the</strong>r in 1986 <strong>the</strong>y established<br />
<strong>the</strong> Mitchell Hochberg Memorial Public Education Fund<br />
to honor <strong>the</strong> memory of Ruth’s son and Phyllis’ bro<strong>the</strong>r, Mitchell.<br />
Since <strong>the</strong> inaugural Mitchell Hochberg Public Education Event<br />
at <strong>the</strong> 1988 AGPA Annual Meeting, <strong>the</strong> Foundation’s Mitchell<br />
Hochberg Memorial Lectures have provided thousands of group<br />
psycho<strong>the</strong>rapists with outstanding presentations on contemporary<br />
topics of interest.<br />
My awareness of Ruth’s philanthropic generosity and her obvious<br />
delight as a loving mo<strong>the</strong>r and thoughtful mentor has deepened<br />
over <strong>the</strong> past decade at Foundation Board meetings. Informal<br />
connections with both Ruth and Phyllis have occurred over tea<br />
and cookies during <strong>the</strong> brief mid-afternoon breaks of our annual<br />
in-person Foundation Board meetings.<br />
At <strong>the</strong> 2009 AGPA Annual Meeting in San Diego, I had <strong>the</strong><br />
luxury of a lengthy conversation with Ruth in <strong>the</strong> comfort of <strong>the</strong><br />
hotel’s club lounge. I knew of her passion for AGPA and <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Group</strong> Foundation, but I knew nothing about how it presented in<br />
her professional interests and her work as a clinician. I was fascinated<br />
by <strong>the</strong> brilliance of her clinical focus and <strong>the</strong> scope of her<br />
professional energy and was charmed by <strong>the</strong> intensity of her sparkling<br />
blue eyes and lilting laugh.<br />
Dare to read between <strong>the</strong> lines of <strong>the</strong>se brief biographical<br />
sketches, and you, too, will be amazed by <strong>the</strong> energy of this<br />
dynamic duo and by <strong>the</strong> generous gifts Ruth and Phyllis bring to<br />
our AGPA community.<br />
Dr. Ruth Hochberg is in private practice in Los Angeles,<br />
California. She held <strong>the</strong> position of Assistant Clinical Professor<br />
at <strong>the</strong> Neuropsychiatric Institute, Department of Psychiatry and<br />
Behavioral Sciences at UCLA, where she received honorary retirement<br />
after 26 years of service. She was President of <strong>the</strong> California<br />
State Psychological <strong>Association</strong> and Chairwoman of its Division<br />
I Board of Directors. She was also Chairwoman and Trustee of<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>American</strong> Psychological <strong>Association</strong>’s Insurance Trust. In<br />
1983, Ruth received <strong>the</strong> CSPA Silver Psi Award for Outstanding<br />
Contributions to <strong>the</strong> field of Psychology as a Professional and for<br />
Service to <strong>the</strong> Community. She also has numerous publications in<br />
<strong>the</strong> field of group psycho<strong>the</strong>rapy.<br />
Ruth’s involvement in AGPA leadership is exemplary. She<br />
has been a member since 1974 and was elected to <strong>the</strong> AGPA<br />
Board of Directors in 1979 for a three-year term and <strong>the</strong>n<br />
again in 1988 for a six-year term as Foundation Chair. She was<br />
AGPA’s Treasurer from 1986 to 1988 and a member of <strong>the</strong><br />
Executive Committee from 1986 to 1994. Ruth also served as <strong>the</strong><br />
Chairwoman of <strong>the</strong> Board of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Group</strong> Psycho<strong>the</strong>rapy Foundation<br />
from 1988 to 1994. For over three decades, Ruth has generously<br />
shared her group expertise with us at AGPA Annual Meetings<br />
by leading Institute process groups as well as offering numerous<br />
conference workshops. Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, she has promoted AGPA and<br />
<strong>the</strong> healing power of group with presentations to her varied professional<br />
communities. It is no surprise that <strong>the</strong>se efforts culminated<br />
in Ruth’s recognition as a Distinguished Fellow in 1999 and as<br />
AGPA’s Woman of <strong>the</strong> Year in 2000. She continues to serve as an<br />
active member of <strong>the</strong> Foundation Board. Ruth is a generous philanthropist<br />
with a talent for fundraising, creating scholarships, and<br />
promoting leadership opportunities for AGPA members.<br />
Phyllis Hochberg Siegel joined <strong>the</strong> Foundation Board of<br />
Directors in 2003. Her initial connection to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Group</strong> Foundation<br />
was through her mo<strong>the</strong>r’s passion for philanthropy, which inspired<br />
Phyllis to take a leadership role as well. Her specific contributions<br />
include her longtime support of <strong>the</strong> Foundation in active stewardship<br />
of two family funds held <strong>the</strong>re. She provides consultation for<br />
<strong>the</strong> annual program selections of <strong>the</strong> Mitchell Hochberg Memorial<br />
Public Education Fund, as well as for <strong>the</strong> awarding of <strong>the</strong> Ruth<br />
Hochberg Training Scholarship. Her philanthropic efforts include<br />
raising funds to ensure <strong>the</strong> sustainability of activities important to<br />
both <strong>the</strong> Foundation and AGPA.<br />
Ruth Hochberg could have easily taken to <strong>the</strong> AGPA stage<br />
each year and presented <strong>the</strong> Mitchell Hochberg Memorial Lecture<br />
on a variety of fascinating topics that would have kept us mesmerized<br />
by <strong>the</strong> wealth of her knowledge and wisdom. Instead, she and<br />
Phyllis choose to offer us insight into <strong>the</strong>ir worldview through <strong>the</strong><br />
remarkable presenters <strong>the</strong>y support each year to inspire us. This<br />
Foundation event at <strong>the</strong> AGPA Annual Meeting bridges <strong>the</strong> conclusion<br />
of <strong>the</strong> AGPA two-day Annual Institute and <strong>the</strong> opening of<br />
its three-day Annual Conference. Since its inception in 1988, <strong>the</strong><br />
range of inspirational topics has harnessed <strong>the</strong> influence of great<br />
minds attuned to <strong>the</strong> significant social issues of our time. Consider<br />
how <strong>the</strong>se timeless topics remain relevant and vital today:<br />
