Zoom Book Talk: Find the Helpers by Fred Guttenberg

Join Fred Guttenberg, as he talks about hope, purpose and resilience and how he came to write FIND THE HELPERS.

Fred Guttenberg’s life was marked by a double tragedy: the murder of his beautiful fourteen-year-old daughter Jaime in the Parkland, Florida, school shooting on Feb 14, 2018 and the death, four months before, of his brother Michael, who—as a doctor—was one of the first responders in the WTC on 9/11.

Following his involvement in these two distinctly American tragedies, Fred has traveled the country talking about both events but also talking about perspective, perseverance, and resilience. He discusses pivotal moments in our lives and how we respond to those moments, using his speech to inspire others.

Find the Helpers tells the story of Fred Guttenberg’s journey since Jaime’s death and how he has been able to get through the worst of times thanks to the kindness and compassion of others. Good things happen to good people at the hands of other good people─and the world is filled with them. They include everyone from amazing gun violence survivors Fred has met around the country to former VP Joe Biden, who spent time talking to him about finding mission and purpose in learning to grieve.
