Rudolf Steiner, the world renowned Austrian philosopher, scientist, occasion artist, and social innovator, died on March 30, 1925 at the age of 64. Born in 1861 in the Austrian empire, Mr. Steiner attended the Vienna Institute of Technology, gaining a doctorate in Philosophy and Mathematics. He was a lifelong advocate of the spiritual in all aspects of life, leading a multifaceted career as a teacher and scientist, producing works on philosophy and spiritual science.
