Thomas Berry was one of the leading thinkers of the 20th century. Born in North Carolina, he lived primarily in New York City but also spent time in Europe and Asia. His planetary reach was striking, both in his knowledge of world history and religion, but also in his celebration of the evolution of the Earth and universe. His understanding of cosmology and ecology were an inspiration for the Journey of the Universe project, an award winning film, book, podcasts, and online courses.
