The Promise Hoyt Richards recounts how, in 1978, he met Frederick von Mierers, a self-proclaimed guru preaching a seductive gospel of Eastern philosophy, astrology, and New Age spirituality. To the outside world, Hoyt was a successful, jet-setting model, but at the same time, he lived an ascetic life while espousing Frederick’s teachings and funding much of his lifestyle. |
