Jonathan Mooney is a dyslexic writer and activist who did not learn to read until he was 12 years old. He is a graduate of Brown University's class of 2000 and holds an honors degree in English Literature. He is founder and President of Project Eye-To-Eye, a mentoring and advocacy non-profit organization for students with learning differences. Mooney has been awarded multiple academic distinctions, and is a leader in the fields of learning disability and social change. In addition, he is a highly sought-after speaker and has lectured in 43 states and three countries.

In his TEDxOlympicBlvd talk, activist and social instigator Jonathan Mooney tells the story of how his mother's inclusive heart gave him permission to accept himself in the face of his extreme learning differences but how it took his father's gesture of motherly love to save him from suicide.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
