Manly Palmer Hall was born March 18, 1901 in Peterborough, Ontario. He was a mystic and author of numerous books. He was influenced by the Theosophical teachings. Joscelyn Godwin wrote:

Apart from a short spell at a military school, he was without formal education. In California he came under the influence of the Theosophical Society. He began his public career in 1920 in Santa Monica, giving a series of lectures on reincarnation. He became a lifelong admirer of H.P. Blavatsky and her Secret Doctrine.[1]
