About the Artist
Waz Thomas was born in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1943 and lived and worked in Cleveland before moving to San Francisco in 1977. While living and teaching at the Integral Yoga Institute, Waz met Michael Lerner, who, in 1984, invited him to move to Bolinas to be part of Commonweal. For 25 years, Waz acted as general manager for the organization; he is also a co-founder of the Commonweal Cancer Help Program, taught yoga for many years to its participants, and currently serves as its intake coordinator and senior advisor. Michael Lerner calls him the “heart” of Commonweal.
