Dana LaMon is a professional speaker who has been motivating and inspiring audiences around the world for over twenty years. A retired administrative law judge, he is a graduate of Yale University and USC Law School. He earned the title of World Champion of Public Speaking from Toastmasters International in 1992 and is a Distinguished Toastmaster, the highest level of educational achievement in the organization.

At a young age, LaMon lost most of his eyesight, which continued to decline until he became completely blind at age 24. Growing up with 11 brothers and sisters, LaMon often heard them say, “You can’t do that, you’re blind.” However, LaMon never let this stop him. He never took the “Why Me?” attitude; instead, he embraced life fully.

The author of four books, LaMon's thought-provoking messages on overcoming challenges, self-worth and risk taking reveal his vision and great insight into human nature and social issues. He has spoken to audiences across the country and from Asia to Australia to South Africa.
