Warren Felt Evans was an American author of the New Thought movement. It has been traditionally thought that he became a student of the movement in 1863, after seeking healing from its founder, Phineas Parkhurst Quimby, but recent scholarship by Catherine Albanese, editor of The Spiritual Journals of Warren Felt Evans from Methodism to Mind Cure, pp. 7-9, puts that in serious doubt—based on interviews that Evans gave, his own printed statements, and his personal journal during this period which never mentioned Quimby. For example in an interview with A. J. Swarts in Mental Science Magazine, Albanese reported, Evans "called twice briefly on Dr. Q. in Portland nearly twenty-five years ago, and his interviews satisfied him that his own methods of cure were like those which Dr. Q employed." Swarts added that Evans spoke "well of him [Quimby], and of all the workers, simply desiring all to be honest and to 'give credit where credit is due.’"
