Dr. Ellen Langer is a professor in the Psychology Department at Harvard University. Her books written for general and academic readers include "Mindfulness" and "The Power of Mindful Learning" and "Mindful Creativity".

The citation for the APA distinguished contributions award reads, in part, "...her pioneering work revealed the profound effects of increasing mindful behavior…and offers new hope to millions whose problems were previously seen as unalterable and inevitable. Ellen Langer has demonstrated repeatedly how our limits are of our own making."
