About Me
| About Me: | In his most rewarding role to date, Christopher Kennedy Lawford is an advocate, for critical mental health issues facing our society today. His passion and commitment to the issues of substance abuse, hepatitis C and mental health has reinvigorated the debate around these vital national concerns. Born into political and movie royalty. Lawford successfully navigated these two worlds as an actor, author, and advocate. However, before his successes, Lawford battled a drug and alcohol addiction for much of his young life. Sober for more than 22 years, he shares his personal story with others in hopes of making a difference. Diagnosed and successfully treated for Hepatitis C, he has assumed a new role in helping to educate America about the silent viral infection of the liver that affects an estimated four million Americans. As the author of the New York Times bestseller Symptoms of Withdrawal: A Memoir of Snapshots and Redemption, Lawford illuminates his extraordinary life and the tragedies he has faced - offering a cohesive message of survival, hope, and inspiration. His experiences are powerful and his search for the truth courageous. He manages to blend his unique background and experience, offering up a rare and provocative view of his life and the worlds around him. Lawford has worked extensively in politics, government and the non-profit sector as well as spending twenty years in the film and television business as an actor, lawyer, executive, and producer. Currently, he holds positions as a Public Advocacy Consultant for Caron Treatment Centers and a National Spokesperson for a Hepatitis C public awareness campaign. He spends his time writing, acting and speaking around the world on health issues. Lawford second book, Moments of Clarity, a book of spiritual epiphanies enabling those that had them to move form addiction to recovery, was released in January 2009, and quickly hit the New York Times best sellers list. In May of 2009 Harper Collins will release his third book Healing Hepatitis C. Lawford was born on March 29, 1955 in Santa Monica, California. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from Tufts University, a Juris Doctor from Boston College Law School and a Masters Certification in Clinical Psychology from Harvard Medical School where he gained an academic appointment as a Lecturer on Psychiatry. <a href="http://www.nuhabits.com">here</a> |
