Who is Clare Bronfman?
Clare Bronfman was born in New York City in 1979. Rita Webb and Edgar Bronfman Sr. are her parents. Edgar, a Canadian billionaire who died in 2013, was the CEO, president, and treasurer of his family’s corporation, Seagram. Clare’s older sister, Sara, was born in 1976, and the sisters have five older half-siblings as a result of her father’s marriage to banking heiress Ann Margaret Loeb.
Bronfman’s parents divorced in 1983, remarried, then divorced again. Following the second divorce, Edgar married artist Jan Aronson, and Rita (now known as Georgiana) married actor Nigel Havers. Following the second divorce, Clare and Sara lived with their mother in England and Kenya. Bronfman’s father was Jewish, and her mother converted to Judaism when she married Edgar.
Bronfman was part of the personal progress program and Executive Success Program courses at the marketing firm NXIVM. She was arrested in 2018 and indicted on many federal crimes related to an alleged cult called DOS that existed within NXIVM, including sex trafficking and conspiracy to perform forced labor.

What is Clare Bronfman’s career?
Clare competed in Ireland’s Millstreet Indoor International Horse Show in late 1999. In May 2001, she won the Grand Prix at CSI-A Eindhoven, and her team finished seventh in jumping at the Samsung Nations Cup Series World F inal a few months later. Bronfman won the Grand Prix of Rome in May 2002, and her team finished sixth.
Clare finished 13th in the CSI-A competition in Bremen in October 2002. Due to her association with NXIVM, the United States Center for SafeSport permanently barred her in October 2018, making her ineligible for “any activities and competitions that USEF [United States Equestrian Federation] licenses, endorses, or sponsors.”
Clare became acquainted with NXIVM’s Executive Success Program and personal improvement program through her sister in 2002. Clare and Sara both became financial supporters of NXIVM’s founder, Keith Raniere, and relocated to upstate New York to work as trainers for the company.
Clare worked as an event coordinator for the annual “Vanguard Week,” a festival held to commemorate Raniere’s birthday. The goal of the “Vanguard Week” was supposed to be “to get the chance to experience a civilized world… [and] craft for ourselves a more fulfilling, purposeful life.” The Bronfman sisters brought their father to the group, but he departed after learning that Clare had handed Raniere and NXIVM co-founder Nancy Salzman a $2 million “loan.”
In a 2003 “Forbes” magazine piece about Raniere, Edgar referred to NXIVM as a “cult.” Clare subsequently became “NXIVM’s operations director and one of its largest financial contributors,” but Raniere blamed her for the group’s negative press as a result of her father’s comments.
Bronfman invested approximately $150 million in the organization. Clare planted keylogger software on Edgar’s computer, allowing NXIVM members to read his email for years. Raniere allegedly authorized Bronfman to engage private investigators to look into the group’s enemies, which included many federal judges.
NXIVM members spent $2 million in an attempt to gain the Dalai Lama’s endorsement in order to separate themselves from the media’s cult claims. Raniere and both Bronfman sisters co-founded the World Ethical Foundations Consortium, and Clare and Sara were instrumental in bringing the Dalai Lama to Albany for the inaugural World Ethical Foundations Consortium event in 2009.
In addition, the Dalai Lama wrote the foreword to Raniere’s book “The Sphinx & Thelxiepeia.” Later, it was revealed that Sara had a sexual relationship with the Dalai Lama’s gatekeeper, Lama Tenzin Dhonden, in violation of his chastity vow. Dhonden had scheduled for the Dalai Lama to participate in the World Ethical Foundations Consortium event, but he was substituted owing to corruption allegations.
