The "father of urban sociology" is generally considered to be Louis Wirth, an American sociologist who was born in 1897 and died in 1952. Wirth was a prominent figure in the Chicago School of Sociology and was one of the first scholars to systematically study urban life and its effects on social behavior and culture. His influential book "Urbanism as a Way of Life" is considered a classic work in the field of urban sociology and helped establish the importance of studying the social dynamics of cities.
