Dr.Kent Bicknell, Ed.D
Kent Bicknell helped found the Sant Bani School in 1973, and continues today as a teaching principal. As a Scholar of the House at Yale, Kent spent his senior year writing a thesis comparing two 14th century English mystics through the lens of the writings of the 16th century Spaniard, Saint John of the Cross. Kent has a master’s degree from Goddard College and a doctorate from Boston University. An independent scholar whose work has been published in a variety of journals, his main interests are the New England Transcendentalists, particularly their interest in the Eastern Wisdom Traditions.
