John Steinbacher

He was born to Joseph Steinbacher and Catherine Matyok in Foley, Alabama on October 18, 1925.[1] He was educated at the Pacific University in Oregon.[2]

His book, The Child Seducers was a best seller.[3]

Steinbacher had been a teacher in his time. For a decade he taught at Californian public schools until 1967. Then from 1967 to 1969, he had been a social worker for Los Angeles County Social Service. He had also been a newsman, radio announcer and author.[4] He was also a member of the New York Academy of Sciences, the American Medical Writers Association, and the American Society of Association Executives.[5] As a reporter he had worked for the Anaheim Bulletin. He also wrote a column for the paper, "School and Family". He was also a contributor to the monthly conservative newspaper, The Educator.[6]

In 1972, he wrote an article about John G. Schmitz, supportive of him, "Who Will Vote for Schmitz?" in the October 5 edition of the Kerrville Mountain Sun.[7] By 1974 he was the director of the National Justice Foundation.[8]

In late March 1969, it was announced in The Los Angeles Times that the Parental Rights Committee (PRC) would pay for four speakers opposing family life education to come and speak. It was narrowed down to just one speaker, Steinbacher. He was scheduled to speak on Monday, March 31, at San Marino High School's theater.[9] At another event the following month, Steinbacher had criticized Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, saying that they were transmission belts for getting sex education into schools.[10]

Steinbacher was an outspoken critic of sex education in America, and the organization USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development) in his book, The Child Seducers, which was published in 1970.[11] The book was critical of the sex education programs in America.[12] A record with the same title came out in 1969. It was produced by Anthony J. Hilder and Earl Stone for the World Christian Movement, and released on Hilder's American United label. In addition to Steinbacher's research for the album, the narration was provided by John Carradine.[13][14]
