Joseph Osgood Barrett (April 13, 1823 – February 8, 1898) was a prominent medium, spiritualist and author. He wrote mainly about religion, but also about women's rights and even botany. Born in Bangor, Maine into a Universalist family, Barrett studied to become a Universalist minister after experiencing trances and visions. He initially kept his spiritualist experiences and beliefs to himself, but eventually "came out" to a congregation in Sycamore, Illinois, splitting the church. He was eventually expelled from the Universalist ministry by the Illinois Convention in 1869 for his unorthodox beliefs.
