Ever since I’ve known Peggy O’Neill (since the late 1970’s) she’s been something of a celebrity. She’s always been a vortex of energy and the center of attention wherever she goes. People love being around her.
Simply put, Peggy has always stood out in the crowd. Which, in a way, is really kind of surprising. For one small reason.
Peggy O’Neill is only 3 feet, 8 inches tall.
And tall she is. Call her “little person” if you want–after all, that is the politically correct term nowadays. But it’s a misnomer. There’s just nothing little about her.
In her usual generous manner, she’s taken her unique perspective on life and turned it into a lesson for all of us through her skill as a talented keynote speaker.
Last year, Peggy was the subject of a wonderful documentary by independent filmmaker, Danielle Lurie, for the Elevate Film Festival. With Peggy’s permission, I’ve posted it here (linked to Google Video).
Please enjoy, Walking Tall. Ladies and gentlemen…Peggy O’Neill:
