Frithjof Bergmann (born December 24, 1944, in Germany) is a Professor Emeritus of philosophy at the University of Michigan, where he regularly taught classes on existentialism and continental philosophy.

Professor Bergmann first came to the US as a student, where he has lived and worked ever since. Apparently while still quite young, he entered the doctoral program in philosophy at Princeton and studied under Walter Kaufmann, receiving his Ph.D. in 1959 with a dissertation entitled "Harmony and Reason: an Introduction to the Philosophy of Hegel." After holding various positions, he arrived at Michigan in 1978.

In 1984,he started an organisation called the Center for New Work (sometimes called just "New Work") in Flint, Michigan, to help the many unemployed people after General Motors closed several plants there.
