The Author

Susan Beilby Magee is an activist, author and modern mystic whose career spans politics, business, government and spirituality. A leader in the 1970s women’s movement, she won a year-long White House Fellowship at the U.S. Treasury and later founded the Circle of Meditation and Healing at the Washington National Cathedral.

For the better part of four decades, Susan has practiced the healing arts as a hypnotherapist, energy healer and meditation teacher — guiding others into stillness to access inner wisdom, restore health and find peace.

Her first book, Into the Light: The Healing Art of Kalman Aron, tells a Holocaust survivor’s story of finding healing through his art. Susan has taken three safaris in Africa where animals “spoke” to her in a language deeper than words, which inspired her new book, Wild Conversations: The Wisdom of African Animals.

A graduate of the Wharton School of Business (MBA) and Pomona College (BA), she has served on numerous boards of directors and spoken widely on leadership, spirituality and transformation, both nationally and internationally.
