The Power of Perseverance

BUY TICKETS NOW

Unlike so many of the young stars of Hollywood, Kathy was able to rise above the pitfalls and trappings that befall so many in the entertainment industry. The question is  what is it in Kathy's spirit that enabled her to escape the trials and tribulations of her fellow child stars, to rise above the inevitable rejections faced when they become adults and to overcome personal struggles, some of which we all experience?

One trait that Kathy has displayed repeatedly is her strength of spirit, her perseverance in the face of adversity and a tenacity to continue on when others had long since given up and/or succumbed to addictions.

Join Kathy as she shares the titillating tale of her success in Hollywood and provides insight into how she coped with the day-to-day struggles of early fame and fortune. Learn how she persevered and survived in a world that few are able. And, in the process, learn how you, too, can overcome adversity and rise above whatever comes your way. Her story will enlighten as well as entertain you.

**REFRESHMENTS, INCLUDING WINE, WILL BE SERVED**

"The essence is to never give up, as Winston Churchill has said, but to greet each day with joy and new hope." KG
