Best Speaker You've Ever Heard
Who was the best speaker you ever heard live?
For me it's a tie between Elie Wiesel, Holocaust survivor and author, and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Both have won Nobel Peace Prizes.
I'd throw Bill Cosby in the mix, too, but that was more of a comedy act.

One of my favorite books, Gina.
Read on a plane after visiting my family and when I arrived back to Arizona, I almost booked a flight to turn around and go back to see them again.

I enjoyed seeing Henry Louis Gate Jr., Ira Glass, Lech Walesa, Peter Jennings, and E.O. Wilson speak live. As for live comedy it's a tie between Bill Cosby and George Burns.

My grandfather, Herman Cody, (1874-1955) who by word and example taught me to be the man that I am today. He instilled in me the principle of honesty and integrity that I live by and that hopefully I have passed on to my daughters, and grandchildren.
