Louis Kaufmann Anspacher (March 1, 1878, Cincinnati, Ohio[1] – May 10, 1947, Nashville, Tennessee) was an American poet, playwright and script writer.[2]

He was the author of Challenge of the Unknown: Exploring the Psychic World, with an introduction by Waldemar Kaempffert, which was published by Allen and Unwin, in the USA in 1947 by Current Books, and in Great Britain in 1952 by Henderson and Spalding.

gollark: The issues I think are most problematic are just companies being able to influence governance, and I'm not really sure what to do about that. Perhaps just have strong norms about having the government not do much.
