Ann Wigmore
Ann Wigmore (1909 – 1994) was a medically unqualified Lithuanian–American "holistic health" practitioner, nutritionist, whole foods advocate, author, and doctor of Divinity. Wigmore wrote several books on her theories and lectured widely to promote her practices. On February 16, 1994, Wigmore died of smoke inhalation from a fire that destroyed the Boston site of the original Hippocrates Health Institute. Today, her methods are still being promoted in Puerto Rico at the Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute, in Florida at the Hippocrates Health Institute and in various other "alternative medicine" resorts. ==Early life == Wigmore was born Anna Marie Warapicki in Lithuania on March 4, 1909 to Antanas (1877-1959) and Anna (1882-?) Warapicki. Antanas emigrated to America in 1908, settling in Middleboro, Massachusetts, where he first worked as a laborer in a shoe manufacturing company,〔1920 Fed Census/1924 & 1925 Middleboro city directories〕 then later as a truck driver for a bakery〔1930 Federal Census〕 during Wigmore's American teen-age years. Anna followed five years later, aboard the ship ''Erlangen'', arriving at Ellis Island on June 16, 1913. After World War I, Anna Marie, then 13, and her brother, Mykola, age 15, (both surnames erroneously entered on the ship's passenger log as "Varapickis") accompanied by an uncle, arrived at Ellis Island on December 9, 1922, on the ''USS America'', to join their parents and younger sister Helen, born February 19, 1921, in Middleboro. The 1930 Federal Census found Anna Marie living in Bristol, Massachusetts, and working as a hospital maid under the name of Anna Warap.
