 Harold Morrow
Sherman
(1898-1987) was world renowned in the field of
psychic research, and conducted experiments with such
prominent persons as well-known Arctic explorer Sir Hubert
Wilkins, ESP pioneer Dr. J.B. Rhine of Duke University,
astronaut Edgar Mitchell, and many others. Apart from his
research into mental telepathy and the mysteries of the
mind, Sherman's lifelong writing career encompassed
best-selling books on a variety of subjects ranging from
sports stories for boys to books on self-help and the
afterlife. He also wrote plays, several of which were
produced on Broadway, and wrote screenplays for two Hollywood films,
Are We Civilized? (1934) and The Adventures of
Mark Twain (1944). For decades Sherman was a popular
New Thought lecturer, and in later years hosted annual ESP
workshops that drew such guests as Uri Geller, Arthur Ford,
Gloria Swanson and many other big names. Not among the least
of his accomplishments were his activities for the
betterment of Stone County, Arkansas, his adopted state.
