Lindsay Wagner makes little distinction between her life as an actress, advocate, mother, humanitarian or author. What unites these various parts is a commitment through her work and her personal life to advancing human potential. Even early in her career this commitment was evident in her Emmy Award winning portrayal of “The Bionic Woman”. Furthering the opportunity to use media as a way to communicate ideas to help people in their personal process, is demonstrated in so many of her films. Films such as: "Shattered Dreams" on spousal abuse and domestic violence produced by Lindsay in 1991; "The Taking of Flight 847" on the root complexities of terrorism (1988); "Evil In Clear River" on the quiet rise of the Neo-Nazi movement in America (1988); "Child's Cry" on child sexual abuse (1985); "I Want To Live" on the moral dilemma regarding capital punishment (1983); and "The Incredible Journey of Doctor Meg Laurel" on the battle between the naturopathic and allopathic healthcare (1979). Off screen, Lindsay continuously works both publicly and privately in advocacy and public education. She shares the knowledge and experiences which have greatly impacted her life and have profoundly enhanced her awe of our often unrecognized human potential. Lindsay has co-author two books: a best-selling vegetarian lifestyle cookbook entitled, The High Road to Health (Simon & Schuster) and a book on acupressure, Lindsay Wagner's New Beauty: The Acupressure Facelift (Simon & Schuster). Recently, Lindsay has founded a non-profit organization PeaceMakers Community. PeaceMakers Community offers experiential retreats and programs designed to help us realize how our perceptions and concepts often have a life diminishing influence on ourselves and others. For many it is the catalyst needed to break through old or undesirable patterns affecting our family dynamics, intimate relationships, parenting, friendships and work/career. Every aspect of our lives will benefit from the experience of a shift in perspective that “Quiets the Mind and Opens the Heart”.
