Masud Khan (1924-1989), one of the most creative, productive, and intelligent members of the British school of psychoanalysis during the 1950s and 1960s, began to become increasingly unwell in his private life; and he perpetrated many unethical acts with patients, resulting in his eventual expulsion from The British Psycho-Analytical Society and the International Psycho-Analytical Association. In the following article, the author explores the impact of the death of Khan's three analysts — Ella Freeman Sharpe, John Rickman, and Donald Winnicott — as well as the effect of Winnicott's arguably inappropriate use of Khan as a secretary and editor.
