U.S. criminologists.
Sheldon Glueck immigrated to the U.S. from Poland as a child. He married Eleanor Touroff in 1922. As researchers at Harvard Law School, they studied the careers of criminals and juvenile delinquents and are especially known for the Gluecks' Social Prediction Tables, which attempted to identify potential delinquents at age six or even younger.
