John Lauritsen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Lauritsen (b. 1939) is a retired market research analyst, author, activist, and the founder of Pagan Press.[1] Lauritsen wrote for the New York Native, where he argued against the connection between HIV and AIDS[2][3] and questioned the safety of AZT.[4] Lauritsen argues that poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, not his wife Mary Shelley, was the real author of Frankenstein. He expounded this theory in his work The Man Who Wrote Frankenstein, which received both favorable and negative reviews.[5][6]
