Winner’s Praise.
When best-selling author and TV commentator Doris Kearns Goodwin saw the work Schifino Lee created to promote her upcoming appearance in Tampa she pronounced, “I love it!”
Her book No Ordinary Time: Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt: The Home Front in World War II won the Pulitzer Prize for history in 1994. Her 2005 book Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln was a huge bestseller and is the basis of Steven Spielberg’s next film.
Art Director Eric Clark created the stylized double portrait of Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Delano Roosevelt to illustrate Goodwin’s theme: the personal characteristics and values that make one a great leader. She will give examples of how values such as perspective, magnanimity and humor helped past presidents excel and can help anyone succeed in a leadership role.
Ms. Goodwin will be keynote speaker at the Hillsborough County Bar Foundation Law & Liberty Dinner on March 24, at the Grand Hyatt. Admission is by reservation only. Call 813-221-7777 for information.
