with our special Guest Speaker, Michael Hingson. Please RSVP as soon

information is at the bottom of this email, following Michael
Hingson’s bio.
Michael Hingson, blind since birth, was born in Chicago to sighted
parents who believed in raising their son with a can-do attitude. When
Michael was a young adult, he received his first guide dog from Guide
Dogs for the Blind in San Rafael, California. He later went to college
receiving a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Physics along with a
secondary teaching credential from the University of California at
Irvine.
Michael then enjoyed a nearly-30-year career working for high tech
companies spending most of his time in management roles.
Michael Hingson’s life changed dramatically on September 11, 2001 when
he and his guide dog, Roselle, escaped from the 78th floor of Tower
One in the World Trade Center moments before it collapsed. Soon after,
Michael and Roselle were thrust into the international limelight where
Michael began to share his unique survival story and 9-11 lessons of
trust, courage, heroism, and teamwork.
He is the author of the #1 New York Times Best Seller: “Thunder dog
–The True Story of a Blind Man, a Guide Dog & the Triumph of Trust” –
selling over 2.5 million copies Worldwide. In 2014 Mr. Hingson
published his 2nd book “Running with Roselle”- which Is the first of
its kind- A story for our youth shedding light on one of Americas
Darkest Days.
Currently Michael lives in Victorville, California with his wife,
Karen, a professional quilter, Alamo, Michael’s eighth guide dog and
their rescue feline, Stitch.
