Book Party!

Milestone Communications founder Len Forkas, author of What Spins the Wheel: Leadership Lessons from our Race for Hope was hosted for a book party by Alliance Bernstein. In 2002, his 9-year-old son was diagnosed with cancer, and the next year, Len founded Hopecam, a charity that connects children with cancer to friends at school using webcams and tablet computers.

He’s signing a book for Deloitte’s Brandon Collins.
