Arlene Cotter is an award-winning designer and strategist whose writing furthers a conversation about life initiated with From This Moment On: A Guide for Those Recently Diagnosed With Cancer (Penguin Random House, 1999) which she wrote after surviving her own terminal diagnosis. While From This Moment On empowers newly diagnosed patients at a critical moment, her current work explores pathways to personal transformation that support all individuals in consciously awakening to their lives.
