- Robert Wolfe was born in rural Ohio--during the decade before the end of World War II. After reading Alan Watts The Way of Zen his interest in spiritual matters reawakened. He joined Big River Farm near Mendocino, California to farm and study Suzuki Roshi's book Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind. Robert moved on to marriage and a career, but eventually returned to Zen and Krishnamurti, Robert spent several years living in a van in the redwoods again tending his spiritual interests. He now resides in Ojai, California where he writes and is available to seekers.
