Everyone can name a teacher who had an impact on their life. Educators
not only open our minds to new ideas, but they also help us recognize
our potential and our passions. However, rarely do they get credit for
the life-changing work they do, and often teachers have no idea how
their work can influence a student all the way into adulthood.
In Lessons Learned and Cherished: The Teacher Who Changed My Life,
award-winning ABC News journalist Deborah Roberts curates a collection
of essays and musings from celebrity friends and colleagues alike that
share how teachers changed them, imparted life lessons, and helped them
get to where they are today.
