Overview: After four years in prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn't commit, Amanda Knox was definitively acquitted by the Italian Supreme Court, but that victory did not restore her damaged reputation. Every day since, she has fought to reclaim her identity and to find meaning in those stolen years and unjust incarceration.
Now she is sharing the invaluable lessons she's learned about survival, forgiveness and radical empathy.
Amanda is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir Waiting to Be Heard, and her writing has been featured in The Atlantic, Oprah Daily, The Free Press, and she has been profiled in The New York Times and an illuminating Netflix documentary, Amanda Knox. She sits on the board of the Frederick Douglass Project for Justice, serves as an Innocence Network Ambassador, and is an advocate for criminal justice reform and media ethics. Amanda is uniquely poised to speak on cultivating resilience in the face of the impossible, and will leave any audience feeling empowered, enlightened, and filled with hope.
