Dr. Laura Dunham has had three interesting careers: higher education, financial planning, and ministry. In the first, she taught English, published books, and served as an academic dean and vice president. She also served on the boards of a college and a national nonprofit. In the second, she counseled hundreds of clients, wrote a weekly newspaper column, appeared frequently in media like Money Magazine, The Wall St. Journal, and U.S. News & World Report and consulted for organizations. In the third, she served as a pastor of churches and a governing body administrator. Her specialties in ministry were financial and environmental stewardship, mission, and spiritual development. She was a trustee of a national church-related foundation for seven years and was commissioned by the Ecumenical Stewardship Center to write Graceful Living: Your Faith, Values, and Money in Changing Times, published in 2002.

In addition to B.A., M.A., M.Div., and Ph.D. degrees, Laura holds a Certificate in Spiritual Formation. She was a Certified Financial Planner for twenty-one years and for a time co-chaired the board of the New Mexico Community Foundation.

Following an early retirement, Laura moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina with husband Alden, son Tom, and their companion animals. She opened a center where she taught spiritual development, metaphysics, and spiritual energy healing for people, places, and the planet. Her work and interests have taken her to more than forty countries around the world. She now focuses on sharing through her writing her spiritual journey and the knowledge, experience, and wisdom it has brought her over her lifetime.
