FARLEY CLINTON

Peter Drucker’s father, Adolph Bertram Drucker, was Grandmaster of all Freemasons in Austria and had a high position in the Austrian Ministry of Economics. Both parents had known Freud for many years, though Peter met him only once, introduced to him as a child of eight, in a restaurant, about 1917; Peter Drucker’s mother was the only woman ever to attend one of Freud’s lecture series, either at the University or at the Psychoanalytic Society, and she owned one of the few first editions of The Interpretation of Dreams.
