2022: More to Life Than More

2022: More to Life Than More

At the heart of ALAN PESKY’s moving new memoir, co-authored with Claudia Aulum, is the story of how a hard-charging successful father changes his life and priorities after his 30-year-old son Lee dies of brain cancer. He writes in loving, painful detail about their complicated relationship, recounting how he had a hard time relating to a son who struggled with learning disabilities when there was not much understanding or resources for kids who had them. He will talk about fatherhood, his mistakes of the heart, and how, in memory of his son, he has built a thriving nonprofit, the Lee Pesky Learning Center in Idaho, that has helped more than 100,000 children with learning disabilities.
