Anselm Grün, OSB is a German Benedictine monk in the Münsterschwarzach Abbey. He teaches courses and lectures, offers spiritual direction, and is author of approximately 300 books focusing on spirituality, which have sold more than 15 million copies in 30 languages.

Born Wilhelm Grün on January 14, 1945, in Junkershausen, he grew up with his parents and six siblings in Lochham near Munich. In 1958, he came to the boarding school of the Abbey of Münsterschwarzach and graduated from the Würzburg Riemenschneider Gymnasium in 1964. He then studied Catholic theology and philosophy from 1965 to 1971 in St. Ottilien and in Sant'Anselmo in Rome, and earned his doctorate in 1974. From 1974 to 1976, Father Anselm additionally studied business administration in Nuremberg.

His first book, titled Gebet und Selbsterkenntnis (Prayer and Self-Knowledge), was published by the Münsterschwarzach Vier-Türme-Verlag in 1979 as part of the Münsterschwarzach Small Writings series. In 1991, Father Anselm, together with Wunibald Müller, founded the Recollectio House, where he has served as the spiritual director to this day.
