PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Steve Wright enjoyed an eleven-year professional football career with the Cowboys, Colts, and Raiders. Driven by his entrepreneurial instincts, he created an innovative misting company, Cloudburst, that cooled professional athletes, the US military, NASA, and the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics. His motto to leave people, places, and things better than he found them led to his work on behalf of Globall Giving, providing gently used sports equipment to over a million children across thirty-five countries and counting. Forever a lover of adventure, Steve joined reality television for thirty-one days of starvation where he embraced the jungle of Nicaragua and emerged more passionate about life. His journey of continuous growth includes an unparalleled enthusiasm for physical and mental fitness, which he practices and shares with his community in Malibu, California. Lizzy Wright's life has been about taking risks and defying the odds. After decades of driving transformation for businesses and non-profits, she followed her heart into the enchanting world of storytelling. Her education at Harvard and Georgetown and careers in intelligence and consulting honed a distinct analytical eye that enriches Lizzy's writing. Her first memoir, Aggressively Human, tackles the uneasy intersection between aggression and empathy. In a world where masculinity is a moving target, it exposes a deeply personal quest to become a healthy, well-adjusted man and a fully realized human being. Her second upcoming memoir, Bred to Be, explores the tumultuous life of Todd Marinovich. Deemed America's first test-tube athlete, the memoir reveals the tapestry of choices and sacrifices made by one of the most misunderstood athletes of a generation. Lizzy's espionage thriller, The Saffron Spy, is forthcoming. While immersed in a shadow world, the novel encourages readers to question ethical constructs as individuals, nations, and a global community. Lizzy is uniquely positioned to blend fact and fiction, bringing readers deep into the underbelly of deceit after tracking Osama bin Laden and his direct reports for years. A lifelong athlete and adventurer, the ocean is Lizzy's second home, where she contemplates character development and word choice in the surf lineup. She lives her dream with her husband, former NFL athlete Steve Wright, in a laid-back enclave of Malibu, California.
"""Steve is so much more than a football player. He's a student of life."" -Marcus Allen, Pro Football Hall of Fame & Raiders Teammate ""A compelling read about the evolution of a man who confronted challenges and came out the other side."" -Neil Strauss, Ten-Time New York Times Best-Selling Author ""I read Aggressively Human as a senator, a feminist, and a football fan. It's a bold, and sometimes brutal account of what it takes to survive and thrive."" -Gloria Romero, Former California Senate Majority Leader ""Steve battled great odds and never gave up. He was a true teammate."" -Tony Dorsett, NFL Hall of Fame & Cowboys Teammate ""To call Steve a peaceful warrior would not be too far a stretch."" -Dr. Ronald Stolberg, Former Psychologist for Survivor ""Ride shotgun with Steve as he keeps it real in Aggressively Human."" -Eric Dickerson, Pro Football Hall of Fame & Raiders Teammate"
