Suzanne Ward was born in Youngstown (Ohio, USA) in 1933. She moved to Miami, where she married and her four children were born. They lived in Panama from 1965 to 1972, when she divorced and she moved with the children to Washington, DC. She worked as an editor for several journals and manager of communications for a multinational corporation. With her family of adopted dogs, Suzy now lives in a rural area near Vancouver, Washington. Her other three children live in Latin America.

In 1980 her son Matthew died in a car crash. Shortly after that, she was guided to three different mediums, who all said that Matthew would be in contact with her again. This happened in 1994, and it was the beginning of an enormous amount of information about Nirvana, ET civilizations, souls, 2012 and many other subjects, not only coming from Matthew but from many galactic beings and even God himself. She learned that it was her life's mission to put this information in books to enlighten the world, which she did.
