Eli Sagan (March 3, 1927 – January 4, 2015) was an American businessman who headed one of the nation's largest manufacturers of outerwear for young women. He was also an autodidact in cultural sociology who wrote several widely reviewed books on the subject and a political activist who served on the national finance committee for George McGovern's 1972 presidential campaign, a role that earned him a spot on Richard Nixon's Enemies List in 1973. His extensive readings in anthropology and psychology led Sagan to author several books, including "At the Dawn of Tyranny: The Origins of Individualism, Political Oppression, and the State” (1985) and "Citizens & Cannibals: The French Revolution, the Struggle for Modernity, and the Origins of Ideological Terror" (2001). 

Early in his career, Sagan also wrote a book on the history of cannibalism, this signed copy presented to our shop owner, Ezra Tishman.  Era and Eli shared many interesting conversations … over lunch….
