Why I want to meet Joseph Campbell
I’d just like to ask him questions and let him talk on and on about the answers. I could do that for hours with as much as he has in his brain.
Mythologian. Comparative Mythology and Comparative Religion.
Author of “Hero With A Thousand Faces”, “The Masks of God” and “Myths to Live By”. Collaborated with Bill Moyers on PBS series “The Power of Myth”.

This man is amazing! He speaks to me on so many levels it’s unreal! I am rabid when it comes to his books and have really progressed on my journey to find my faith thanks to his words! Maybe not in this lifetime…..
Mr. Campbell gave an all-day seminar at Harvard, back in around ‘81. The topic was “The Hero’s Journey”, and during the seminar, he said that we, in attendance, were all heroes. I chose to agree.
I had been reading “Hero with a Thousand Faces” at the time, and had only been in Cambridge a few weeks, as I recall.
A gentle and encyclopedic soul who is missed, I’m sure, by his many fans.
