Thomas Moore (spiritual writer)

Thomas Moore is the author of popular spiritual books including the New York Times best seller, "Care of the Soul" (1992). He is a Roman Catholic and a Jungian psychotherapist.

Moore was born in Detroit, Michigan to an Irish Catholic family. As a youth he joined the Servites, a Roman Catholic lay order where he studied philosophy and music.

He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Chicago's DePaul University, a Master of Arts degree in musicology from the University of Michigan, a Master of Arts degree in theology from the University of Windsor, Ontario, and in 1975, a Doctor of Philosophy degree in religion from Syracuse University. He taught at Glassboro State College and then Southern Methodist University, where he was denied tenure.

From 1974 to 1990 he practiced as a psychotherapist, first in Dallas, Texas and later in New England. After the success of "Care of the Soul" and its companion volume "SoulMates", he became a full-time professional writer. Moore's book, "Dark Nights of the Soul", won an award in 2006. His most recent book, "A Life at Work," was published in February, 2008.
