President Ford quipped:
"You know, the Secretary of the Army, Bo Callaway, is the only man I know who can talk about the all-volunteer Army for over three hours on a two-hour
flight." | Speechwriter & Business Writer

Why Turn to a Professional Speechwriter?
Executives should use valuable time for
making vital decisions, not crafting speeches.
Executives are too
busy to think about a speech until it's on top of them.
With 25 years of experience as a professional writer, I have written
for virtually every occasion and, I know what works.
