Leonard Pickard is a longtime friend of the JLS Fund and one of the most remarkable voices in the history of psychedelic research and culture. His journey spans early work in academia, a dramatic role in the LSD era, and two decades of reflection and writing while incarcerated.
Since his compassionate release in 2020, Pickard has emerged as an eloquent speaker and author, known for The Rose of Paracelsus: On Secrets & Sacraments, a visionary blend of memoir and literature that has become a touchstone in psychedelic thought.
