During the 1955-1956 academic year, Friedman worked in the Niels Bohr Laboratory at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen.
With Jerrold Zacharias led the Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) with the aim to develop a new curriculum for high school physics. Friedman was the principal author of the first edition of the PSSC ''Physics'' textbook (1960).〔(AAPT Celebrates PSSC's 50th Birthday )〕
