Stewart Brand (born December 14, 1938 in Rockford, Illinois) is an author, editor, and creator of The Whole Earth Catalog and CoEvolution Quarterly.
Brand is best known for the Whole Earth Catalog (a compendium of tools, texts and information). The Catalog sought to “catalyze the emergence of a realm of personal power” by making soft technology available to people eager to create sustainable communities. Brand went on to found a number of organizations, including the WELL or Whole Earth ‘Lectronic Link (an early online community); the Global Business Network (a futurist consulting firm); and the Long Now Foundation (dedicated to encouraging long-term thinking). He is the author of several books and many articles, ranging in focus from the psychedelic rituals of Native Americans to a systems analysis of “buildings in time.” Today, he and his wife live on a tugboat in Sausalito, California.
