Foundress of the Aletheia House of Prayer, she was active in the New York community. A scholar of languages and theology, she devoted her life to Peace. She studied and taught the religious beliefs of East and West and the major religions emerging from the Middle East. She traveled the world and carried with her the Bible, Koran, the Dhammapada, and the Bhagavagita, among others. Her hope was that through interfaith communication, peace could be won.
