abstract
  • Becky Blanton is an American author, journalist, and speaker. A TED Global speaker, Becky spoke about her year of homelessness at TED University in Oxford, England on July 21, 2009. Her first book, Stay Hungry, the Official Guide for Never Settling for What Life Puts on Your Plate, is both how-to and biography, filled with inspirational stories of the journeys of others and herself, but also with the nuts and bolts of how people get out of life’s tough times. Blanton's essay, “The Monster,” was published in Tim Russert's best-selling book, “Wisdom of Our Fathers.” Russert told interviewers the essay was the reason he chose to include a chapter on “forgiveness,” in the book.
