[Andreas Heldal-Lund and Tory Christman, in Toronto in 2015]
In August 2022, we talked to Andreas Heldal-Lund about his diagnosis of terminal brain cancer, and we expressed how much admiration we had for this man of conviction. As ever, he was facing things with humility and wonder, and our esteem for him grew even greater.
We got to know Andreas in 2001 thanks to Tory Christman, whose story was intertwined with Andreas in such a fascinating way.
Yesterday, Tory let us know that Andreas had died. He was 59.
We thought the best way to pay tribute to this man who created the website Operation Clambake, which did so much to expose the controversies of the Church of Scientology, is to republish our story from 2001 which appeared in a newspaper that no longer exists, New Times Los Angeles.
Andreas’s caring, and Tory’s journey of discovery, has as much impact for us today as the day we wrote it, and we hope you find it a fitting memorial for a man who made this world a better place.
