'''Kenneth Wapnick, Ph.D.''' was born in 1942 in [[Brooklyn]], [[New York]].  Together with Dr. William Thetford and scribe, Dr. Helen Schucman, Ken Wapnick helped edit the work known as [[A Course In Miracles]].  Educated as a psychologist, he currently heads the [[Foundation for A Course In Miracles]] (or FACIM).   FACIM holds the copyright for publication of the full 2nd edition of ''A Course In Miracles''.{{fn|1}}
 Of the three people who brought ''A Course In Miracles'' to the world, Wapnick is the last surviving member. Wapnick is considered by many people to be the world's foremost interpreter of ''A Course in Miracles''. [[Gary Renard]]'s book [[The Disappearance of the Universe]] claims that in future centuries Wapnick will be seen as one of the great spiritual teachers of our age.
