Minoo Claire

Printer-friendly version

Minoo took her first step on her spiritual path as a young teen after reading Richard Bach’s, Jonathan Livingston Seagull. The story resonated truths for Minoo about the evolutionary nature of our being and the quest for perfection. Having a relatively rational intellect, she was unable to find a system of belief that provided answers to her questions or that quenched her thirst for truth until The Urantia Book “found” her 32 years ago while in college. The book has been on her nightstand ever since, and she considers it to be the greatest gift and blessing of her life.

Minoo attended several international schools in different parts of the world, earning her bachelor’s degree in fine arts with a minor in graphic design at the University of Maryland in 1986. Professionally, she has been an art teacher for children and teens, an English teacher for adults, conducted craft studios for cancer patients, owned her own small business for planning children’s events, exhibited her oil paintings on several occasions, and has done freelance graphic design.

Born to her Swiss mother, Minoo has lived in Switzerland since 1988 where she married her Swiss husband. They have a daughter and son who live with them in a small village outside of French-speaking Lausanne.
