Liz Murray's story is so inspirational that it was made into an Emmy-nominated movie and moved talk-show doyen Oprah to honour her with Winfrey's "Chutzpah Award". Murray shares her fascinating story of growing up with two drug addicted parents who she began supporting at the age of 10. The death of her mother while Murray was still a teenager drove her to break free of her circumstances and pursue a different life path.
While living on the streets of New York, she completed and graduated from high school in just two years. Overcoming incredible odds, she won a full scholarship and was accepted to Harvard University. Murray's elegant and uplifting tale will encourage you to reflect on Vancouver's issues, and view those living on our own streets with new perspective.
