Carl Binger (1889–1976) was an American psychiatrist and the author of articles and books about the practice of medicine. Binger grew up in New York City and attended Harvard College (1906) and Harvard Medical School (1914), after which he served as a doctor in World War I and in a Red Cross mission to combat a Typhus epidemic in Macedonia.
