Dr. Fritz Klein Dies at 73
Founder of American Institute of Bisexuality Mourned

SAN DIEGO — Fritz Klein, chair and founder of the American Institute of Bisexuality, died in May following a cardiac arrest, according to the institute’s website.
       He was known for his pioneering sex research and development of the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid, which “measures the complexity and fluidity of sexual orientation.” Klein deduced from his studies that “sexual orientations are too complex to be broken into simple, well-defined categories.”
       Born in Vienna in 1932, Klein and his family fled to New York City to escape anti-Semitism and the war. He was a psychiatrist for 30 years in San Diego and New York and published several books including Life, Sex and the Pursuit of Happiness in 2005.
