LECTURE
Discovering Fianna Bucher Meyer
Who was Fianna Bucher Meyer? She was an Elizabethtown College student (1907–1908) from a family of Brethren leaders, a young mother, and a victim of tuberculosis. She was also grandmother to Nancy L. Bieber (’67), who discovered her grandmother when she unearthed boxes of letters in the attic a century after Fianna’s death. Bieber will talk about this discovery and how her research uncovered more about Fianna’s life.
Nancy L. Bieber is a spiritual director, writer, and retired psychologist. She is the author of Decision Making and Spiritual Discernment The Sacred Art of Finding Your Way (SkyLight Paths, 2010) and Fianna’s Story: A True Story of Love, Grief, and Faith (Masthof Press, 2020). Copies of Fianna's Story will be available for sale and signing after the lecture.
