description: Dame Sybil Leek was an astrologer, writer, lecturer and, by religion, a witch. She’s been credited with being the first contemporary woman to promote Wicca. While still living in England, she owned an antique shop. After she wrote a book entitled A Shop in the High Street, she was invited, in 1964, by an American publisher to come to the States to speak about antiques. She used this opportunity to also speak about witchcraft. She appeared on several televisions shows, including To Tell the Truth and The Amazing World of Kreskin. She moved to Florida in the late 1960s. For much of her later life, Sybil Leek divided her time between Florida and Houston, Texas. She wrote several books, including Diary of a Witch and Sybil Leek’s Book of Curses. She died in Melbourne in 1982.
