Judy Cooperman Finkle AIS class of 1967 j_finkle@yahoo.com
My life is now fulfilled. This is because I have become interested in celebrities. I have a Ph.D. in Digital Art, but this is not really what I am talking about. I am living in the town of Fairfield, Iowa, still, the home of Maharishi International University. The Transcendental Meditation organization is and always was associated with major celebrities. So, me too. As many people know, Maharishi became famous through the help of the Beatles, Donovan, etc. Right now the famous director, David Lynch (Twin Peaks, etc.) is in the news constantly because he is promoting TM. He was here in Fairfield recently, as was Donovan, who I got to know many years ago when I was a student at Brown University. Also Mike Love from the Beach Boys comes here. I knew some of the Beach Boys way back too. Other famous people here are my friends now, who I don’t want to name in public. My nephew, Seth Swirsky, who has had songs in the top 10 and who lives in Beverly Hills is working on a movie about the Beatles right now. Mary Tyler Moore, Clint Eastwood, Burt Reynolds, Joe Namath (of the New York Jets football team) all helped make Maharishi famous. William Gibson (the author of “The Miracle Worker,” the famous play about Helen Keller) wrote a book about becoming a TM teacher with Maharishi called “A Season in Heaven.” He was there with his son William Gibson, Jr. who is a famous science fiction writer now. Many many more too. For example we knew Andy Kauffman through TM before he became famous. In fact, one of my friends helped make him famous. I could go on and on. But I just want to let everyone who saw me at the reunion know that my life is fulfilled now, and this is why. When nothing else works, associate with celebrities, is my philosophy. It changes everything. Judy Cooperman Finkle See also Judy's Letter from 2005.
