Homelessness in America: The Beginning and the End

A Special Osher Members - Only Event


After a distinguished 30 year career working in film, network television and home video as a writer, producer and director, a series of personal tragedies rendered Don Barrett a homeless wanderer in a strange city where he knew no one. Today, Don Barrett is a published author with four books on the market. His talk will cover topics such as life on the streets, surviving multiple adversities, and how to recover when you've literally lost everything.
