FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Blind 9/11 Survivor Shares Story of
Survival and Teamwork at Center for Spiritual Living-Reno
Michael Hingson #1 New York Times best-selling author of THUNDER DOG
Appears in Reno on November 9th and live-streamed
Reno (NV) October 30, 2012: Michael Hingson #1
New York Times best-selling author of THUNDER
DOG: The True Story of a Blind Man, His Guide Dog
& the Triumph of Trust at Ground Zero will appear
at Center for Spiritual Living, Reno on Friday,
November 9, 2012 at 7:00p.m.. Audiences will
follow Michael Hingson and his award-winning
guide dog, Roselle, as their lives are changed
forever by two explosions and 1,463 stairs
and
discover how blindness and the astonishing bond
between a man and his dog not only saved lives,
but fetched America a ray of hope on one of her darkest days.
This is not just the story of how I escaped from
the World Trade Center, said Hingson, but rather
it is the story of how I got there, and it is the
story of how I learned to cope with the attacks
and to move on. I offer life lessons others can
use when confronted with major changes in their world.
"We are so honored to host Michael Hingson. His
captivating story inspires us by demonstrating
what's possible through trust and working
together under the most extreme
circumstances. You can't help but be forever
changed by his story." Rev. Liesa Leggett Garcia
