Born into poverty in southwest Virginia in 1883, Oliver Napoleon
Hill was encouraged to write by his stepmother and soon discovered
a talent for it. He began working as a "mountain reporter" for
small-town newspapers and went on to become America's most beloved
motivational author. His classic book Think and Grow Rich had sold
twenty million copies by the time of Hill's death in 1970 and
remains a cornerstone of the modern self-actualization movement.
Before passing, Hill established the Napoleon Hill Foundation as a
nonprofit educational institution, whose mission is to perpetuate
his philosophy of leadership, self-motivation, and individual
achievement.
