Jerry Has Been Speaking in Public Since 1975! In 1977, as a result of speaking at virtually every Public High School in the city, Jerry formed the Philadelphia High Schools Motivational Association. This was a group of parents and educators of kids in high school that needed a little push to move on to college. This was done through higher level studies and better communication in the home. The group numbered 11,000! Jerry lead the program for four years; the program continued for another twenty years. In 1993 Jerry was named Emcee of the Broward County (FL) Libraries Children's Reading Festival, a two day event which drew many thousands of kids and their parents. He introduced singers, dancers and readers from the main stage. He held this position till the festivals ended in 2005.
Jerry also is the Emcee for BookFest! held every year at various Broward County libraries. Jerry has delivered many book reviews at various libraries and clubs. He always leaves the guests smiling.
