Anne Newgarden was born and raised in Staten Island, New York City’s “forgotten borough,” where her fascination with the metaphysical began, and has been grateful for many years to call Greenwich Village her home. She attended Manhattan’s Stuyvesant High School, and majored in English at the University of Virginia.
Anne has worked as a writer and editor in the field of children’s educational and entertainment media; a copy editor/proofreader in magazine and book publishing; a personal assistant to a celebrated folk musician; a project coordinator in an experimental NYC public school classroom; and a concession-stand manager at an Off-Broadway theater, among other interesting jobs.
Her published works include Christmas in New York: A Pop-Up Book and Christmas Around the World: A Pop-Up Book , both with artist Chuck Fischer (Bulfinch); and Becoming Jane: The Wit and Wisdom of Jane Austen (Miramax) . . . with Jane Austen. Anne loves strong coffee, independent movie theaters, sandpipers, small children, and expanding her consciousness, not exclusively or necessarily in that order, and has always been happiest by the water. She writes and plays, whenever she can, at the Jersey Shore.
Whether through personal tragedy or philosophical curiosity, many of us find ourselves drawn to the big question of whether there’s life after physical death, which in turn probably means we turn to a medium for connection with that other world, or to find answers to our questions. This book is a delightful and insightful guide for those who may be about to embark on this journey, offering insights and tips from mediums themselves. Clearly, Anne has done her homework here, having interviewed many mediums. If you’re thinking of working with a medium, this book is an excellent starting point. Highly recommend!
