Benjamin "Ben" Karpman (August 8, 1886 – May 24, 1962) was an American psychiatrist known for his work on human sexuality. He served as Professor and Head of Psychiatry at Howard University College of Medicine from 1921 to 1941.〔Williams EY (November 1967).

==Life and career==
Karpman was born in Slutzk. He graduated from University of Minnesota, earning a bachelor’s degree in 1915, a Master’s degree in 1918, and a Doctor of Medicine degree in 1920. While at University of Minnesota Medical School, he worked with Jesse Francis McClendon on pioneering ''in situ'' pH measurements in the human digestive tract. After completing his internship at St. Elizabeths Hospital, he rose to the position of Senior Medical Officer and Psychotherapist. Karpman was a proponent of psychoanalysis and published many case reports based on his clinical experience. At Howard, he introduced dynamic psychiatry into the medical curriculum.〔Willie CV, Kramer, BM, Brown BS (1973). Racism and mental health: essays. University of Pittsburgh Press, ISBN 978-0-8229-5233-6〕
Karpman was a contributor to ''The American Mercury'', where he was critical of the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act.〔Karpman B (May 10, 1931). A law that creates crime. ''Chicago Daily Tribune''〕 He was elected to the New York Academy of Sciences in 1953.〔Transactions of the New York Academy of Sciences, p. 282.〕 Karpman was critical of both law and medicine in their treatment of social problems. He predicted that by 2010 the U.S. would have no prisons, just psychiatric treatment centers for lawbreakers. "I am at odds with the legal profession and most of psychiatry," he conceded, "but they're all wrong. The question is simply, 'Is the accused sick or not?' You can't have mental illness and criminal responsibility in the same person at the same time."〔Staff report (May 23, 1960). (Medicine: Criminal or Insane? ) ''Time''〕
Karpman had a heart attack on May 23, 1962 and died the next day.〔Cruvant BA (1963). Benjamin Karpman. M.D.: (1886–1962) ''American Journal of Psychiatry'' 119:1119-1120, May 1963 〕〔Death notices.
