Bill Baldwin gave the commencement address at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas on August 4, 2018, the summer after the Texas Gulf Coast Region experienced Hurricane Harvey. This book and these life lessons are the end result of that event. This book is about what happened after a hurricane and the goodness in mankind after an exceptional event in time.
Commemorating the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Harvey, and the incredible story of what can happen when people come together in a time of need to help others because it could have been them, Heroes, Hope, and High Water makes a great gift or inspirational token.

One of Bill's most rewarding platforms to give back was forming the Houston Relief Hub, a citizen-led hub for donations, volunteering, and relief formed in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey.

At the end of the day though, Bill's just the proud father of Richard and Ginger and loving partner to Fady Armanious.
