the highest bidder. The Iris Network will receive the proceeds of
this auction.
Singer, Actor, Author, Writer, Producer, Tom
Sullivan lives and works by “Sullivan’s Rules.” Invented by his dad,
Porky Sullivan, so young Tommy Sullivan could play baseball with the
neighborhood kids, “the rules” became the cornerstone by which the adult
Tom Sullivan came to live his life, turning any negative into a
positive, turning disadvantage into advantage, playing in every game.
Born prematurely in 1947, Tom was given too much oxygen while in an
incubator. Though it saved his life, it cost him his eyesight. The
“inconvenience” of being blind has never kept Tom Sullivan from
competing in a world where he realized that to be equal, for him, meant
that he must be better. Even as he may have had to change the rules
slightly, he has proven that one need not be limited by a handicap,
whether it is playing backyard baseball as a youngster or any activity
he’s pursued. Tom is an excellent golfer. (“I’ve never seen a water
hazard. I always have an open shot to the green.”) He’s an avid snow
skier and a marathon runner and has been inducted into the Wrestling
Hall of Fame.
Tom Sullivan’s speaking career has spanned over twenty years, with over 2500 appearances.
