#38 Liz Murray: Homeless to Harvard

from Freedom Writers Podcast · host Erin Gruwell and the Freedom Writers

Erin interviews best-selling author and activist Liz Murray, whose story is depicted in her visceral memoir Breaking Night and the emmy-nominated Lifetime movie, Homeless to Harvard. With sincere love and candor, Liz recounts what it was like being raised by two loving but severely drug-addicted parents, and reflects on the vital role of mentors in shaping her sense of possibility and self-worth. She credits the generosity and goodness of others for helping her to look beyond her current limitations and become the influential leader she is today.
