A Chat With Hill Harper

It took some effort to get Hill Harper on the phone. After all, the man has an impacted schedule: series regular on CSI:NY, host of Verses & Flow, and author of The Wealth Cure: Putting Money In Its Place, his latest book that is inspiring reflective, thought-provoking conversation amongst its readers. And in the midst of all this, he has to have a personal life right?

Once we connected, I quickly learned that Mr. Harper has a passion for helping others that goes beyond the books he has written and the foundation, Manifest Your Destiny, that he has established to empower at-risk youth. Listen in, as he shares with me his thoughts on education, President Obama, the good and bad of social media, and what plans he has for 2012.
