Author Biography

St. Teresa of Avila was a Carmelite nun, mystic, and religious reformer who lived in 16th century Spain. She is best known for her mystical writings and visions, her profound insights on prayer, and her work to reform the Carmelite order. She was canonized 40 years after her death and was made the first female Doctor of the Church in 1970.
