Meet the author Philip Smith

One day, back in the sixties, Lew Smith, an interior decorator with clients such as the Presidents of Cuba and Haiti and General Motors, suddenly discovered that he could talk to the dead and heal the sick.

Inspired early on by the work of Edgar Cayce and despite constant harassment by the FDA and the police for "practicing medicine without a license", Lew went on to successfully diagnose and heal thousands of people using new healing methods taught to him by the spirit world.

During the seventies, Cayce's son, Hugh Lynn, became friends with Lew and would come down during the winter and stay at Smith's Florida residence.

Tonight, Lew's son will discuss his new book, "Walking Through Walls" which recounts growing up with a father like Cayce and witnessing his father's extraordinary abilities.
