has been called, “America’s leading personal growth expert.” The author of five New York Times bestsellers, Bradshaw On: The Family, Healing the Shame That Binds You, Homecoming, Creating Love, and Family Secrets, Bradshaw pioneered the concept of the “Inner Child” and brought the term “dysfunctional family” into the mainstream. He has created and hosted four nationally broadcast PBS television series based on his books and has touched millions of lives through his work. Bradshaw speaks of his friend, Dick Wagner: “Richard Wagner was totally original. He created some of the most poignant songs I’ve ever heard. I used them in my “inner child” workshops with an attendance of an estimated half million people. We spent a lot of time over the years probing our lives and had a “deep soul connection.” We will never see the likes of him again.”
