About the Author
Max D. Isaacson conquered his life-long fear of public speaking at the age of 37 as the result of the training he received through the Toastmasters International organization. Encouraged by mentors at weekly Toastmaster meetings, he learned the value of thorough speech preparation, effective delivery and much-needed practice before live audiences. He subsequently became a member of the Toastmasters International Hall of Fame as a result of winning performances in national and international competition.

In addition to his book, he has had speeches reprinted in two national publications -- Vital Speeches of the Day and The Saturday Evening Post.

Isaacson is a native Iowan, a military veteran and a former certified lay speaker in the United Methodist Church. The father of four and the proud grandfather of seven, he holds Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Drake University and currently resides in West Des Moines, Iowa, with his wife of 44 years. He owns a successful textile printing and embroidery company which markets its products world-wide.

His favorite quote for those who are afraid to accept the challenges of public speaking came from former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
