Frank C. Laubach (1884-1970) was a Christian Evangelical missionary, author, and educator who devoted his life to teaching people around the world to read and write. A pioneer in adult literacy, Dr. Laubach originated the “each one teach one’ literacy teaching method and founded Laubach Literacy International. After Dr. Laubach’s death, his son Robert took over as president of Laubach Literacy and founded New Readers Press. In 2002, Laubach Literacy International and Literacy Volunteers of America merged to create ProLiteracy.
Dr. Laubach was a prolific writer whose books covered a variety of topics, including literacy, the Philippines, and prayer. You Are My Friends tells how to live a spiritual life guided by the friendship and teachings of Jesus.
