About the Book

How did Ed King, a struggling high school student, go on to earn a Master's degree and work in higher education for almost 40 years? He focused on his strengths--building relationships, public speaking, and basketball--and they took him far. From his humble beginnings during the Great Depression in Oklahoma to his starting role on an undefeated state-champion high school basketball team to the amazing speech he developed that has touched the hearts of thousands of people, Ed King--Dean King--learned and taught lessons of essential wisdom. As a beloved college dean at Bradley University, a decorated Sigma Chi Fraternity brother, a devout Catholic, a talented athlete, a dynamic speaker, and a loving husband, father, and grandfather, Ed's life epitomizes these valuable lessons that will apply to your life, too.
About the Author: Maria King Carroll was born and raised in Peoria, Illinois, where she continues to live with her husband John and their son Luke. Having grown up across the street from Bradley University, where her father worked, she had no interest in going there and graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a B.A. in History and Philosophy. She later saw the error in her thinking and went on to earn two Master's Degrees from Bradley in Human Development Counseling and English. Maria has worked as a foster care and adoption worker, counselor, communications coordinator, freelance writer, academic advisor, and English instructor. She is currently the coordinator of Haitian Hearts, an organization founded by John that brings children from Haiti to the United States for heart surgery and other medical care. She also does a lot of volunteer work at St. Mark's School, where she and John at- tended and where Luke is in junior high. She has blogs at www.livefromhaiti.blogspot.com and www.bouncingball.org. Maria is the favorite child of her father's--along with her four siblings (five-way tie for first!)
