The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C15H15NO, contains two independent molecules, both of which exist in trans configurations with respect to the C=N bonds [1.278 (2) and 1.279 (2) Å]. In each molecule, intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate S(6) ring motifs. In one molecule, the benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 13.38 (9)°, while in the other molecule the dihedral angle is 30.60 (10)°. In the crystal, the two independent molecules are linked via weak intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
