She founded the Ruscombe Mansion Community Health Center in Baltimore in 1984. She hosted the national radio program Future Talk until 2008 and cohosts 21st Century Radio with her husband, Robert Hieronimus. The author of several books, she lives in Owings Mills, Maryland.
"Great Book! White Spirit Animals combines shamanism,
trans-species telepathy, historic research, and native stories to
show the reader why we must save the bear, lion, elephant, buffalo,
wolf, and other species from extinction and how they have guided
humanity in the past. A unique testimony to the close relationship
between humans and animals and our ability to communicate and
collaborate with each other." * John Perkins, New York Times
bestselling author *
"Brilliant visionary work that pulls humanity into alignment with
our animal kin and forgotten souls." * G. A. Bradshaw, Ph.D.,
author of Elephants on the Edge *
"White Spirit Animals is a beautiful and deep work of art
and heart. It provides a wealth of cross-cultural, historical,
shamanic, and mythical information. It is likely to connect the
reader with the symbolically deep realm where dreams come from. The
images and stories resonate with that place of inner knowing in us.
I am enthusiastic about this book--thank you, Zohara Hieronimus!" *
Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D., author of Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit
in Everywoman *
"The traditional Haudenosaunee/Iroquois view is that those in the
animal world are related to us. As humans we are within the same
circle of life as animals as well as trees, plants, and the earth
itself. Animals and birds serve as symbols for the family clans,
and the bear and the wolf are part of that. These teachings are
clearly covered in this book." * John Kahionhes Fadden, cofounder
of the Six Nations Indian Museum *
"In these times of turmoil, it is critically important that we
listen to the phantom shaman-animals who have stepped forward to
guide us. Zohara Hieronimus knows where to find them, and she knows
their language. With White Spirit Animals, she has given us
an invaluable portal into their world. I implore you to go there."
* Tamarack Song, author of Becoming Nature: Learning the Language
of Wild Animals and Plants *
"Zohara's magnificent White Spirit Animals reminds her
readers of the human/animal bond and its continued importance. Her
book hearkens back to shamanic practices that employed spirit
animals as copractitioners. . . . White Spirit Animals can teach,
protect, and heal their human siblings, and in so doing expand the
boundaries of what is possible." * Stanley Krippner, Ph.D., Alan
Watts Professor of Psychology at Saybrook University *
"Zohara Hieronimus provides an important bridge linking modern
objective science and ancient and traditional shamanic beliefs--a
very useful contribution." * Stephan A. Schwartz, author of The 8
Laws of Change *
