The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

Hello,
Please join the Ohio Association of Guide Dog Users for a Zoom call with our special Guest Speaker, Michael Hingson. Please RSVP as soon as possible with Deanna Lewis at: Deannakay03 at gmail.com in order for your name to be entered in our drawing for Door Prizes. The Zoom Call 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.
