the story behind a New Age publishing empire
This long article appeared today in the New York Times Magazine. It is an amazing story about a woman who founded a New Age publishing empire.
Here is the intro:
By MARK OPPENHEIMER
“LOUISE HAY IS ONE OF THE BEST-SELLING AUTHORS IN HISTORY, and none of the women who have sold more — like J. K. Rowling, Danielle Steel and Barbara Cartland — owned a publishing empire. They did not change the spiritual landscape of America and several of its Western allies. They were not pregnant at 15 and they did not lack high-school diplomas. Finer writers they may have been (depending on your taste), and wealthier women, but it would be hard to argue that any was more interesting than Louise Hay.
In any event, none of them ever touched my arm so intimately.”
