She is Everywhere! Volume 3: An Anthology of Writings in Womanist/Feminist Spirituality
About the Co-editors Mary Beth Moser holds an M.A. in Women's Spirituality and is a Ph.D. candidate in Philosophy and Religion at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco. When Mary Beth is not exploring the back roads of Italy, she lives among the natural beauty of the Northwest where she is nurtured by the rains, mountains, tall trees, and the night sky. Mary Saracino is a novelist, poet, and memoir writer who lives in Lafayette, Colorado. Mary loves Earl Grey tea with half & half, nature walks, the roar of the ocean, travelling, and spending time with friends and family. She feels renewed by natural beauty-and is awed by Colorado's vast cerulean-blue sky, abundant sunshine, and majestic mountains. Our friendship took root on a study trip in Sardegna, Italy in 2004 with Dr. Lucia Chiavola Birnbaum. A few years ago when we participated in a workshop with Vicki Noble, Vicki prepared our astrological charts and pronounced that-having been born only five days apart-we were essentially "astrological twins". It has been a journey of discovery to work on this project together, each in our own supportive environment. May your journey through its pages be rewarding. With connection and gratitude to all of our contributors and readers, Mary Beth and Mary She Is Everywhere!
