Steve Ford
On August 9, 1974 Gerald R. Ford assumed the reins of the presidency following the resignation of Richard Nixon. Suddenly, Steve Ford was thrust into the role of "First Son". Steve's unique perspective on life as the President's son encompasses a broad range of fascinating subjects: being 18 years old and having 10 Secret Service agents as constant companions...his father's pardon of President Nixon to help put an end to the infamous Watergate affair...two assassination attempts on his father's life...his mother's bouts with alcoholism and breast cancer. During Steve's non-political presentation, you will learn the tools of his success in and outside Washington, DC. With a focus on such issues as the value of a strong family unit, living life with values and character, setting and juggling priorities, and making the right choices in life, Steve's presentation is entertaining.
