Jerry Hicks

Jerry Hicks was an American self-help and spiritual author best known for coauthoring, with Esther Hicks, books on the Abraham teachings and the Law of Attraction. His notable works include Ask and It Is Given, The Law of Attraction, and Money, and the Law of Attraction; several reached the New York Times bestseller list.

Biography & Author's Journey

Jerry Hicks built his authorial life through performance, entrepreneurship, and spiritual inquiry rather than through a conventional literary path. Public accounts of his early years describe him first as a circus acrobat in Cuba and then, beginning in 1948, as a touring musician, master of ceremonies, and comedian. By the time he met Esther Weaver in Fresno in 1976, he was already a successful motivational business speaker; they married four years later. A decisive turning point came in Phoenix in 1985, where the couple began the experience that became the Abraham teachings. Hicks then pressed to share that material publicly, helping move it from private exploration to small San Antonio living-room gatherings and, from there, to a much larger audience.
