Stephan A. Hoeller is an American author, lecturer and neo-Gnostic bishop.

Career
A lecturer and writer of books and articles about Gnosticism and Jungian psychology, Hoeller is also Regionary Bishop of Ecclesia Gnostica.

Hoeller was ordained to the priesthood in the American Catholic Church by Bishop Lowell P. Wadle in 1958, and consecrated bishop by Richard Duc de Palatine on April 9, 1967. After the death of Palatine, Hoeller abbreviated Palatine's church's name — the Pre-Nicene Gnostic Catholic Church — to Ecclesia Gnostica, and has since held the title of Regionary Bishop.

Hoeller has lectured in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Hungary, Germany, and the United States. He was a member of the lecturing faculty of the late Manly P. Hall's Philosophical Research Society, and a national speaker for the Theosophical Society in America. His articles have appeared in Gnosis magazine and Quest Magazine.
