Raleigh, NC (SANEPR.com) March 19, 2008 -- Liz Murray, whose life was the basis for the Lifetime Television production From Homeless to Harvard, will be the featured speaker at the Business Club of the Triangle’s (BCA Triangle) March breakfast meeting.

“Liz Murray has an incredible story to share,” said Penn Shore, president of the Business Club of the Triangle. “I look forward to having our members hear her inspirational story and learn more about what they can do to encourage their co-workers and staff to achieve what may seem impossible.”
