Marianne Williamson is a spiritual activist and internationally acclaimed author and lecturer with four number one New York Times bestsellers. She’s the chairman of the Peace Alliance, a grass roots campaign supporting legislation to establish a Department of Peace. And Newsweek magazine named her one of the 50 most influential baby boomers. Williamson has earned the nickname “the Mother Teresa for the Nineties,” but it’s this next trait that will most likely cause people to go into hysterics: Marianne is one of Oprah’s friends! With this esteemed honor came a slot on XM satellite radio’s “Oprah and Friends” channel, one of many platforms where Williamson spreads her message. Now she’s bringing the lovefest to Miami. Tonight she’ll be lecturing about the powerful bond between mothers and daughters. RSVP to [email protected] or 305-624-0009.
