Marianne serves as President of the Board of The Peace Alliance, a grass roots campaign supporting legislation currently before Congress to establish a U.S. Department of Peace.
Her book Everyday Grace: Having Hope, Finding Forgiveness and Making Miracles, was published by Riverhead Books (Nov 2002) and quickly reached #1 on the New York Times Best-Seller List (Dec 2002). Her newest book, The Gift of Change: Spiritual Guidance for a Radically New Life, is available at bookstores everywhere in hardback and paperback.
Marianne's newest professional venture is her own radio show, airing on the new XM Radio block called 'Oprah and Friends'.
In December 2006, a NEWSWEEK magazine poll named Marianne Williamson one of the fifty most influential baby boomers.
