LaDonna Gatlin believes in Public Education!
* She is a PROUD product of the Texas Public Schools. * Her mother was a teacher's aid for over 20 years. * Her father received his GED--at the age of 73! * Her daughter is pursuing a career in education. * She has presented to Education audiences more than 100 times in the past five years.
And beyond all of that, she has a passion for educators!. In fact, she feels forever indebted to them for their role in helping her own daughter complete high school in spite of some very challenging circumstances. LaDonna's incredible story relates directly to educators, support staff, and all those within the various fields of education who are influencing students today. It is a story filled with warmth and gratitude and one that has a lasting effect in the hearts of her listeners.
A little bit of background…LaDonna literally grew up on stage singing with her brothers--the legendary Gatlin Brothers. In the early 1970’s the Gatlin’s took their family harmony to Nashville. But a detour appeared on the road to stardom-- LaDonna got married. At this defining moment, she realized that success for her could be measured in a very different way. So she took a giant leap of faith, chose to follow her heart, and “sing a different song” apart from her brothers. She has spent her entire career empowering people to "sing their own song," to realize their potential by living life authentically from the inside out…through their words, their deeds, and their actions.
LaDonna truly speaks from the heart with stories that are the stuff of life. Her easy-going style delivers common sense wisdom for everyday living . Combine that solid content with her outstanding vocal performance, and you get an amazing experience that educates, inspires and entertains!
* She is an active member of the National Speakers Association, and has earned its highest professional designation, the CSP (Certified Speaking Professional).
* She is one of fewer than 200 speakers worldwide to be awarded the CPAE (Council of Peers Award for Excellence) Speaker Hall of Fame lifetime award for speaking excellence and professionalism.

* She is a contributing author to the best-selling book series Chicken Soup for the Soul.
