About Ann
Wigmore
Ann Wigmore was born in
Cropos, Lithuania on March 4, 1909. In
1925, at the age of 16, she moved to
America to join her parents, who were
already living in Massachusetts.
She married and later gave
birth to a daughter, but it was only after
the end of her marriage in 1955 that her
life vision began to take shape. In poor
health, she began using weeds and
wheatgrass juicing to heal herself. Over
the course of the next 35 years, she
promoted natural healing via her schools
in Boston, The Hippocrates Health
Institute, which opened in 1963, and The
Ann Wigmore Foundation, begun in Boston in
1985. Her brilliant, long-lived career
included lecturing, writing, and giving
wheatgrass demonstrations in over 35
countries.
Her untimely death in
Boston on February 16, 1994, was due to
smoke inhalation from a fire at the Ann
Wigmore Foundation. Ann Wigmore's
contribution as a humanitarian, educator,
writer, and tireless promoter of natural
health lives on here at the Ann Wigmore
Foundation in San Fidel, New
Mexico.
