David Metraux Website, Jan. 25, 2011: Dr. Rhoda Metraux p. (My mother, Rhoda Bubendey Metraux (1914-2003), was a prominent anthropologist in the area of cross-cultural studies, specializing in Haitian voodoo and the Iatmul of New Guinea. She collaborated with my father, Alfred Metraux, on mutual studies of Voodoo in Haiti. During WWII, Dr. Metraux headed the section on German morale for the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS). My mother was also an important professional and personal partner of Margaret Mead (1901-1978). As a contributing Editor to Redbook magazine for well over a decade, both wrote many articles on contemporary issues that later formed the basis of a number of books including A way of seeing)
