JERRY WHITE Thursday, May 22 at 7:30 p.m. at Town Hall Seattle, 1119 Eighth Avenue
Co-presented with the TOWN HALL CENTER FOR CIVIC LIFE. Jerry White, co-founder of Survivor Corps (formerly Landmine Survivor Network), a recognized leader in the international campaign to ban landmines, and co-recipient of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize, talks this evening about the power of resilience in the face of crisis, the subject of his new book, I Will Not Be Broken: Five Steps to Overcoming a Life Crisis (St. Martins). Himself a survivor of maiming by a landmine, he draws from his own experience and those of many others in guiding individuals, families, friends, and communities through the aftermath of seeming catastrophe. $5 at the door (no advance tickets), with preferred seating for Town Hall members.
