About
Lyric Benson Fergusson is a #1 best selling author, spiritual teacher, singer-songwriter, and activist who pushes the envelope of how God is traditionally spoken of. Lyric grew up in Hollywood as daughter of actor/director Robby Benson and singer songwriter Karla DeVito. She spent most of her young life on television sets such as Ellen and Friends. At twenty two Lyric became a celibate monk and remained so until she was almost thirty. She devoted her life to silence and awakening, often spending eight to ten hours a day in eyes closed meditation or prayer. It was during these transformational years that she composed her poetic mysticism.
In 2011 Lyric took a brief respite from solo monastic living to create her spiritual rock and roll album Lyric’s Love Light Revolution co-written by her father Robby Benson, and in 2015 published her #1 best selling poetry book French Kissing God: A Journey to Enlightenment. Lyric now lives in Maui, Hawaii with her husband and is looking forward to more adventures that life has to offer.
