For ten years I was the Information, Education and Communication consultant to the extremely successful family planning programs of South Korea and Taiwan. We helped reduce average family size from 6 children to 2 in a single generation, and increased per capita income from under $2,000 per year to over $35,000.
I returned to the US and started Jugglebug juggling equipment company and Juggling for Success, our instructional arm. I "wrote the book on juggling." My books and videos, translated into a half dozen languages, have sold over 1 million copies worldwide. I grew the company for 18 years and sold it to Sportime/School Specialty.
I was recruited by Al Gore to learn to deliver his program. After training, I tossed out all his gloomy slides and started our elementary school program based on positivity and getting to a clean and green future ASAP. I have a team assembled and we start in Maryland in Fall 2013 to get children, parents & teachers to pledge to take action.
