Jane Heap / Notes

by Jane Heap

Jane Heap entered the Work in 1924 and by 1927 had been asked by Gurdjieff to lead a group in Montmartre. With Orage, she helped edit the English edition of Beezlebub's Tales to his Grandson. In 1935 Gurdjieff sent her to England to lead groups, which she did until her death in 1964. A. L. Staveley, a pupil of hers for 20 years, said, "She was an artist in words as well as materials of all kinds. The precision with which an idea was presented, the fact that it appeared as a picture rather than as verbal thought, was a little shock and entered a pupil as an unforgettable impression."
