Robert W. Olson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Robert W. Olson (b. 1920) was director of the Ellen G. White Estate from 1978 to 1990. He was the first staff member who was not a direct descendant of Ellen G. White to run her estate and the first staff member to hold a Ph.D. He had a wide variety of pastoral and administrative posts before joining the White Estate in the early 1970s. His leadership was characterized by a new openess to her writings (including the release of the controversial "Z file") and the release and publication of Ellen White's published writings on CD-ROM.
