Henry Geiger

Who was Henry Geiger?

Henry Geiger was the editor, publisher, and chief writer of MANAS Journal which published from 1948-1988.

He “had been variously a chorus boy on Broadway, a journalist, a conscientious objector in World War II, a commercial printer, and a lecturer and leader in The Theosophy Lodge in Los Angeles.” Abraham Maslow called him “the only small ‘p’ philosopher America has produced in this century.” Geiger was also an advocate of Edward Bellamy's type of socialism. Some of Geiger's associates, such as Lewis Hill, would later be involved in the creation of Pacifica Radio.
