Dr. Ervin Seale (1909-1990), who addressed a large audience at Carnegie Hall, Avery Fisher Hall and Lincoln Center in New York City for 32 years was a major spokesman of the Phineas Parkhurst Quimby philosophy and was gifted New Thought writer and speaker. The Quimby Memorial Church is an outgrowth of the Quimby Memorial Church and Foundation of New York City. The Church and Foundation were under the direction of Dr. Ervin Seale, a former minister of the Church of the Truth and president of The International New Thought Alliance. Seale, a veritable "dean" of the Quimby studies, dedicated his later years to translating and publishing these writings. The Quimby writings provide an historical perspective of the mental healing techniques that later gave birth to Christian Science and then New Thought Christianity. Ervin Seale's books on Quimby are considered essential reading for anyone wanting to understand New Thought.
