Neville Goddard (February 19, 1905 - October 1, 1972), also known as Neville, was a Barbadian novelist who published the Bible, mysticism, and self-help books. He was a prophet, famous teacher, and author who lived from 1905 until 1972. The Goddard clan was one of the most powerful and influential families in the West Indies. He moved to New York City around 1922 and began his career as a ballroom and ballet dancer.
In 1931, he began studying Kabbalah under the guidance of an Ethiopian rabbi. He did not become a citizen of the United States until after World War II when he served in the US Army. In the early 1950s, Goddard gave a religious speech at The Town Hall. He was widely speculated to be planning a metaphysical telefilm presentation in 1954, yet it was uncertain if the concept ever materialized. Goddard had lived in Los Angeles for nearly 20 years when he died in West Hollywood in 1972.
He is interred in Westbury Cemetery in Saint Michael (Barbados). Neville Goddard was the most technically substantial and charismatic proponent of the New Thought philosophy of the twentieth century. From the late 1930s until he died in 1972, he authored more than ten volumes under the pen name Neville and was a renowned speaker on metaphysical topics.
