Sue Thomas has been profoundly deaf since the age of 18 months but with
humor and stories has become one of America's favorite professional speakers. From
her world of silence comes the ability to break the sound barrier with her audiences
everywhere.
Born in Ohio, Sue Thomas has her degree in International Relations and has
done post graduate work in Counseling. Her deafness could not withhold the beauty of
music as she studied and enjoys playing classical piano.
Her professional work includes working for the F.B.I. in Washington, D.C. in which she
did classified surveillance work, using her lip reading ability. She has authored
her best selling autobiography, Silent Night, and is currently completing a
second book.
