Diagnosed in 1990 with a potentially life-threatening liver disease, Naomi faced the tragedy with trademark strength and optimism. Declaring "the Lord as her doctor and the fans as her medicine," she embarked with Wynonna on their triumphant 1991 Farewell Tour across the United States to personally thank the fans who had befriended her.

Naomi's autobiography, Love Can Build A Bridge, stayed on the New York Times' bestseller list for several months and was the basis of a critically acclaimed NBC mini series for which she served co-executive producer. That she passed life's worst tests in such an elegant, yet down-to-earth way has made Naomi one of the entertainment world's most admired women and has endeared her to fans as the "star next door." She is a highly sought-after insprirational and motivational speaker who translates faith and values, medical knowledge, humor, common sense and belief in the mind-body-spirit connection into a powerful and unforgettable message.
