Rollo May (April 21, 1909, Ada, Ohio - October 22, 1994, Tiburon, California) was an American existential psychologist, authoring the influential book Love and Will in 1969. Although he is often associated with humanistic psychology, he differs from other humanistic psychologists such as Virginia Satir, Abraham Maslow or Carl Rogers in showing a sharper awareness of the tragic dimensions of human existence. May was a close friend of the U.S. German-born theologian Paul Tillich. His works include Love and Will and The Courage to Create, the latter title honoring Tillich's The Courage to Be.
