I know nothing of Joan's early life.
Coming into Scientology
Joan had been reading all the books she could find on psychology, and non of them satisfied what she was looking for. At the end of 1956 she came across Ron's book Fundamentals of Thought, and felt this was it (actually that was the year the book was published). She took a Communication CourseGives people a reality on Scientology and teaches communication formula by dummy auditing. (HCOB 5 Apr 73), and then the full HPAAbbreviation for Hubbard Professional Auditor. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). (professional auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more course) in 1957. At a later date she did the Saint HillThe name of LRH's home in East Grinstead, Sussex, England. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) Special Briefing Course (at the time it was only available at Saint HillThe name of LRH's home in East Grinstead, Sussex, England. (BTB 12 Apr 72R), England)
Staff Member
She was on staff at the London HASIAbbreviation for Hubbard Association of Scientologists International. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). for a long time. I remember she was Extension Course instructor at one time (that was a correspondence course in major ScnAbbreviation for Scientology. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). books, like Dianetics1. DIA (Greek) through, NOUS (Greek) mind, deals with a system of mental image pictures in relation to psychic (spiritual) trauma. The mental image pictures are believed on the basis of personal revelation to be comprising mental activity created and formed by the spirit, and not by the body or brain. (BPL 24 Sept 73 V) 2. Dn addresses the body. Thus Dn is used to knock out and erase illnesses, unwanted sensations, misemotion, somatics, pain, etc. Dn came before Scn. It disposed of body illness and the difficulties a thetan was having with his body. (HCOB 22 Apr 69)...more: Modern Science of Mental Health and Science of Survival). She wanted to do the 6th London ACCAdvanced Clinical Course - ACC - one of a number of theory and research courses delivered by L. Ron Hubbard during the years 1953 to 1961, which gave a deep insight into the phenomena of the mind and the rationale of research and investigation. and asked me to take on the Extension Course job while she was on it, which I did. She was also Registrar at London. Her most prominent job was HCO Secretary, London, at a time HCO was a separate body to the HASIAbbreviation for Hubbard Association of Scientologists International. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). London (but in the same building, 37 Fitzroy Street). Here she was in regular touch with Ron Hubbard, traveling down to Saint HillThe name of LRH's home in East Grinstead, Sussex, England. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) to confer with him.
Retirement
In the 1970's I was in touch with her (by the "modern media" of the time, cassette tapes). And one summer when I went to England on holiday, my father (in a London suburb) lent me his car to travel down to Porlock, Somerset (situated near Exmoor National Park ). She had retired to live with her sister. They were both keen gardeners and were brought up in Porlock in a house which was shaded from the sun much of sunny days by the Exmoor Hills. They had therefore brought a plot of land not affected that way, had built a small house on it, and were busy gardening. This was before the big exodus from the church, and the stronger suppressiveness of the 80's. We could let our hair down, and she told me quite a bit.
She talked of Reg Sharpe and John Damonte (see biographies, the one on John Damonte still to come).
She also told me that she had auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) in London, which was CSed by Ron. In the period just after Power Processing came out, she told me that once, when she was together with Ron, he looked at her, and then told her that she did not need to do Power Processing. I interviewed her on cassette, and she talked about her early experiences in Scientology, including how the training was then. The tape is available (converted to mp3 file) at http://www.ivymag.org/jdv/jdv.html
In about 1977 I wrote to Joan and got a letter from her sister saying she was dead.
Personal recollections of Joan and how she was would be much appreciated, preferably before all us that knew her are dead!.
