Frederick James Eugene Woodbridge
Frederick James Eugene Woodbridge (1867, New York – 1940, New York) was a teacher at various American universities. Woodbridge considered himself a naïve realist, deeply impressed with Santayana. He spent much of his career at Columbia University, where a residence hall and a professorship in philosophy are named in his honor. He was editor of the The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods. David and Lillian Swenson, translators of some of the works of Søren Kierkegaard, dedicated Concluding Unscientific Postscript, (1941) to Professor Woodbridge.
