Murray Bowen (31 January 1913 in Waverly, Tennessee – 9 October 1990) was an American psychiatrist and Georgetown University professor of psychiatry. Bowen was a family therapy pioneer and the inventor of systemic treatment. Beginning in the 1950s, he created a family systems theory. Bowen worked at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland, from 1954 to 1959, when he proceeded to create the theory that would be named after him: Bowen Theory. [4] Family therapy was still a byproduct of theory at the time. Bowen conducted his initial research on parents who had one adult schizophrenic kid, believing that this may give a paradigm for all children. He began merging thoughts with the new theory after developing the discipline of family therapy. None of this, he asserted, has ever been reported in the psychiatric literature. What started the first year became nationally renowned in around two years.

From 1959 through 1990, he was a clinical professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington, DC, and subsequently as the head of Family Programs and the creation of a Family Center.
