I find it amusing that Milton Henschel is accurately described, not as a "theologian" or "minister," but as an "executive."
Here ya go:
Milton Henschel, 72; Executive Who Led Jehovah's WitnessesBy THE NEW YORK TIMES
ilton G. Henschel, a member since 1971 of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses, which looks after their religious programs around the world, died on March 22 at his Brooklyn home. He was 72.
The Jehovah's Witnesses' public information office did not give a cause.
He lived in the complex of buildings in Brooklyn Heights that is the world headquarters of the Jehovah's Witnesses, a Christian denomination founded in the late 19th century that believes the end of the world is near and advocates door-to-door evangelism.
Mr. Henschel was a member of the staff of the world headquarters since 1939 and was the president since 1992 of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society Inc. of Pennsylvania and the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society Inc. of New York State, two of the corporations that the Jehovah's Witnesses use to conduct their business affairs, which include publishing Bibles.
He was also president of the International Bible Students Association.
A native of Pomona, N.J., Milton George Henschel had several years of religious training at Jehovah's Witnesses training institutions in Brooklyn Heights. He was ordained a Jehovah's Witness minister in 1934 and traveled to 150 countries while overseeing, and taking part in, ministry activity.
Surviving are his wife, Lucille; and a brother, Warren, of Canada.
