Robert Fulghum

b. 1937 · American author & Unitarian minister

Robert Fulghum is an American author and former Unitarian Universalist minister, best known for the mega-selling essay collection All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten (1988). His warm, aphoristic style is exactly the kind of writing that gets stripped of attribution online—and, ironically, reassigned to other famous names. The weirdness-and-love passage comes from his 1997 book True Love.
