Sylvia Browne Psychic

Background Info

Sylvia Browne, psychic, hails from Kansas City, Missouri, and has a diverse religious background that includes a Jewish father, Episcopalian mother and Lutheran grandmother. Due to the many differences in their religious beliefs, the family was baptized together into the Catholic faith when Browne was still young. Today, however, many websites still cite her as being Jewish.

According to Browne, she began seeing visions at the young age of three. With the help of her maternal grandmother, who was a self-proclaimed psychic medium, Browne learned how to understand what was actually appearing to her. Today, her psychic abilities are world-renowned, and she claims to be an expert on parapsychology. She lives in California, but continues to tour the U.S and Canada as a guest lecturer.

The Career of Sylvia Browne, Psychic

Sylvia Browne psychic talents have earned her fame and fortune, with the rich and the famous seeking her guidance and advice. Her yearly predictions are eagerly awaited, debated and sometimes debunked, and while there are plenty of anti-Sylvia publications and websites, there are just as many faithful followers. For some, her clairvoyance is just entertainment, but for others, her psychic know-how offers them help with life-changing decisions.

While Browne's best-selling books are certainly based on her clairvoyant talents, she continues to wow audiences with her charisma and gregarious speaking ability. In fact, she's so entertaining that even non-believers tune in to her predictions or seek out her books to read what she has to say. She is a New York Times best-selling author, and she regularly appears on the Montel Williams Show and Larry King Live. Browne's website offers visitors an opportunity to schedule a psychic reading or lecture event.
