"When one listens to Sophy Burnham it's like a light in one's life. She is absolutely magnetic." -Marie-Monique Steckel, former President France-Telecom.
"What she has to give people comes not just from her luminous words - though her language is wonderful - but even more through the holiness of her presence, because she takes people into an experience that cannot be expressed in words but is carried somehow in her radiance." -John Sack, author
"One of the most enthralling speakers I have ever heard..." -Rod MacLeish, author and TV producer.

Active in the Washington, D. C. theater scene, her play Prometheus was produced in 2002 at the Studio Theatre in Washington, DC.
That same year two new books were published: The Treasure of Montsegur, a novel about the Cathars, and The Path of Prayer -- named one of the 50 best books of the year by Spirituality and Health Magazine.
