Barbara Marx Hubbard has been called the voice for conscious evolution by Deepak Chopra. As the subject of Neale Donald Walsch's book, The Mother of Invention, many would agree Barbara is the world's foremost global ambassador for conscious change. At heart Barbara Marx Hubbard is a visionary, a social innovator. She thinks from an evolutionary perspective and believes that global change happens when we work collectively and selflessly for the greater good. She realizes that the lessons of evolution teach us that problems are evolutionary drivers and that crises precede transformation. This gives us a new way of seeing and responding to our global situation. A prolific author and educator, Barbara has written seven books on social and planetary evolution. She has produced, hosted, and contributed to countless documentaries seen by millions of people around the world. In conjunction with the Shift Network, Barbara co-produced the worldwide Birth 2012″ multi-media event that was seen as a historic turning point in exposing the social, spiritual, scientific, and technological potential in humanity. In 1984 her name was placed in nomination for the Vice Presidency of the United States on the Democratic Party ticket. She called for the creation of a Peace Room to scan for, map, connect and communicate what is working in America and all around the world. She also co-chaired a number of Soviet-American Citizen Summits, introducing a new concept called SYNCON to foster synergistic convergence between opposing groups. In addition she co-founded the World Future Society, and the Association for Global New Thought. Barbara Marx Hubbard is not an idealist, nor does she believe that social and planetary change is simple. But she does believe that humanity has the tools, fortitude, and resolve to take the leap towards conscious evolution.
