Charles Luk
I went looking for information on Charles Luk on the Internet and there was surprisingly little to find. This page with a one paragraph biography and a bibliography is the best information available. Charles Luk was a student of the great Chinese Zen master Hsu Yun and translated Chinese Buddhist texts into English, as well as a book on Taoist meditation. He's a perfect example of a self-effacing Buddhist scholar. His works are known, but he is not. His first teacher was a "Hutuktu (Tulku) of Sikang," who I'm guessing was Bo Gangkar Rinpoche, who was teaching in China during that period.
