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
