Horatio Pollock
Horatio Milo Pollock (2 September 1868 – 8 May 1950) was an American statistician.
He was born in the village of Patria, New York, in
Surgeon General Rupert Blue, who asked him to do the same for the United States Army's newly established division of neurology and psychiatry in the midst of World War I. Pollock later devised a similar system for the state of Illinois. From 1915 to 1935, Pollock was editor of the Psychiatric Quarterly, after which he edited the Mental Hygiene News for the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene until retirement in 1943.[1][2]
Pollock was statistical consultant to the National Committee for Mental Hygiene for 25 years, and helped compile a statistical manual for hospitals jointly sponsored by the committee and the
United States Veterans Bureau, and was elected a fellow of the American Statistical Association.[1] Pollock died in Petersburg, Virginia on 8 May 1950.[2]
