A RARE WINDOW INTO THE INNER LIFE OF BILL WILSON - A.A. COFOUNDER & HEALER OF MILLIONSBill W. Conscious Contact - The Award-Winning Film On Paper presents a deeply moving portrait of William Griffith Wilson (1895-1971) not as a public institution, but as a man who never stopped seeking. Drawing from the Stepping Stones Archive(R)-The Historic Home of Bill and Lois Wilson(R) in Westchester County, New York - this companion volume to the award-winning documentary brings together rare archival photographs, Bill's own letters, and the full film transcript.Featuring a never-before-told story: in December 1969, Bill Wilson - founder of Alcoholics Anonymous - was taught Transcendental Meditation by Lincoln Norton. Afterward, he declared: "I never understood the 11th Step until I started TM." This discovery, confirmed through Lois Wilson's personal guest book, reveals a man still growing spiritually in the final year of his life.Winner of 8+ international film festival awards including Best Documentary at the San Diego Movie Awards, Royal Starr Film Festival, Touchstone Independent Film Festival, and Best Documentary Feature at Documentaries Without Borders.Ideal for: AA members, Al-Anon families, recovery communities, historians of spirituality, and anyone inspired by one of the 20th century's great healers.
