<P>Dear Mr. Nusen, </P>
<P>Realizing your work with Pikes Peak Community College, I thought you may be
interested in the work of nationally syndicated broadcast journalist, Nelson
Lauver. I feel Nelson would be a great fit as a speaker at an upcoming
conference.</P>
<P>Nelson was one of “those kids.” Learning problems, behavioral problems,
truancy issues -- in general, a very difficult case. Then, this kid went on to
do something completely unexpected….he succeeded. Today he is the host/creator
of The American Storyteller Radio Journal.</P>
<P>I believe this is a story every person who has a disability, or works in the
field of disabilities/education, should hear. With his wit and tenacity, Nelson
has a remarkable ability to reach out and touch the hearts of his audience. </P>
<P>To give you a bit more information and background, I’ve pasted a brief bio,
plus a link to Nelson’s info sheet PDF, at the very bottom of this email. You
will also find a link to our website in my signature line.</P>
<P>Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any assistance.</P>
<P>Best regards,</P>
<P>Jane</P>

<P>“America is filled with the triumphant success stories of people who have
overcome the seemingly insurmountable to achieve a desired goal.” </B></I>-
Nelson Lauver</P></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=1>
<P>Nelson Lauver is the host and creator of The American Storyteller Radio
Journal, a nationally syndicated radio feature. His short stories of the
American Experience are broadcast daily in 60 US markets and resonate with
listeners from every walk of life.</P>
<P>As a professional speaker, Nelson inspires audiences with the stories of
tenacious Americans who have been knocked down and have had the true grit to get
back up and achieve success. He then fortifies audiences with the tools and
resolve to do it too.</P>
<P>Nelson has spent nearly 15 years studying, writing and speaking about human
potential, and the common denominator that turns ordinary people into
extraordinary achievers.</P>
<P>Nelson himself has beaten the odds. At age 29, then a parking lot line
painter, Nelson stopped making excuses and took charge of his life. He overcame
illiteracy caused by undiagnosed dyslexia, and would go on to become a
nationally syndicated journalist, broadcaster, speaker and advocate.</P>
<P>Anyone who has ever encountered obstacles, whether individually or
collectively as an organization, can’t help but be inspired and motivated by
Nelson Lauver’s message along with his wit, tenacity and incredible
communication style.</P></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>
