Loren Grey (November 20, 1915 – February 2, 2007) was an educational psychologist and author of several books in that field. He also managed the legacy of his father, western author Zane Grey. Loren Grey was born in Middletown, New York. His family moved to California a few years after his birth. Loren frequently accompanied his father on fishing trips to Oregon and the South Pacific. But he sometimes resented public fawning over his father. "He was rich and famous and had beautiful women, and I felt like I didn't have anything. I hated him for it," Loren told the Los Angeles Times in a 1986 interview. Loren was enrolled at the University of Southern California, majoring in English, at the time of his father's death. He later embraced his father's legacy and spent three decades as president of Zane Grey Inc., which oversaw the trademarked Zane Grey name and handled licensing of Zane Grey books, audiotapes, movies, T-shirts, fishing tackle and fishing memorabilia. Loren served in the United States Navy during World War II and was at Pearl Harbor when it was attacked.. After the war he re-enrolled in USC and earned a master's degree and doctorate in educational psychology. He married Marcella Robinson in 1945 but they later divorced. He then married Bonnie McDermott. He was on the faculty of California State University, Northridge for 30 years as a professor of educational psychology. His writings on that subject include ''Discipline Without Tyranny'', published in 1972, and ''Discipline Without Fear: Child Training During the Early School Years'', published in 1974. Loren also examined the ideas of Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler in ''Alfred Adler, the Forgotten Prophet: A Vision for the 21st Century'', which was published in 1998. Loren also served as ghost writer for a series of fictional western novels based on Lassiter, the hero in Zane Grey's ''Riders of the Purple Sage''. Loren also authored a coffee-table book in 1985 that chronicled his father's travels titled ''Zane Grey: A Photographic Odyssey''. Loren Grey died at West Hills Hospital and Medical Center in West Hills, California. His death was attributed to age-related complications. ==Lassiter novels== * Lassiter (1985) * Ambush for Lassiter (1985) * Lassiter Gold (1986) * Lassiter Tough (1986) * The Lassiter Luck (1986) * A Grave for Lassiter (1987) * Lassiter's Ride (1988) * Lassiter on the Texas Trail (1988) * Lassiter and the Great Horse Race (1989) * Lassiter and the Golden Dragon (1989) * Lassiter's Showdown (1990) * Lassiter in the Comanche Stronghold (1990) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Loren Grey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
