Harry Harlow is famous in psychological circles for primate research.  No introductory psychology course would be complete lest it include his famous studies which found, not surprisingly, that baby rhesus monkeys prefer upholstered surrogate mothers to wire frame mothers.

When Harry Harlow retired from the University of Wisconsin in 1974, he moved to Tucson with his first wife whom he had remarried after the death of his second wife.  Although officially retired, he held an honorary appointment at the University of Arizona, and collaborated with his wife on several publications including the book, The Human Model, Primate Perspective (1979).
