Marianne’s People

January 19, 2024
Marianne Williamson might not be the first name that comes to mind as we approach the 2024 election, but for some people, she’s the only option. For our upcoming issue, journalist and author P.E. Moskowitz followed Williamson on the campaign trail, talked to her supporters, and came back with some surprising stories.

For one follower, Ellebeah, “the possibility of internal transformation is what drew her to Williamson long before Williamson was involved in politics,” Moskowitz reports. After reading Williamson’s self-help book A Woman’s Worth, Ellebeah’s life was turned around for the better, and now, for her, “it’s Marianne or death.”
