Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?

Yes, I have. A few times I’ve performed on stage—choir concerts, musicals—and even found myself in front of a television audience. When I was younger, I appeared on local TV during the Jerry Lewis Telethon. My parents were part of a CB radio group that raised money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Each year they held an auction, and twice I had the honor of handing the donation check directly to the head of the telethon. They were small moments, but they made me feel part of something bigger than myself.
