About the Author: Psychiatrist Thomas A. Harris (1910–1995) completed his medical training at Temple University and served as the chief of the U.S. Navy's psychiatric branch in the 1940s. In his 1967 book I'm OK—You're OK: A Practical Guide to Transactional Analysis, he suggested that a person develops his or her identity based on social interactions. The volume was a consistent best-seller in the 1970s and led to a sequel, Staying OK, co-authored with his wife, Amy Bjork Harris, in 1985.
