9^th September 1905-27^th April 2004

Jane Hollister Wheelwright was born on one of the old Spanish land-grant ranches in Southern California. She met her husband Joseph (Jo) B. Wheelwright in 1927 when he was teaching at a private school in Santa Barbara. They consulted with Jung in 1932 about their psychological type differences, an encounter that changed both of their lives; both Jo and Jane subsequently entered into analysis with Jung. In 1939 they returned to California where they became founding members of the San Francisco Jungian analytic group.

Among the books she authored are The Death of a Woman (1981), featuring the dreams of a young woman dying of cancer, and The Ranch Papers (1988), a chronicle of her early life on the ranch.
