DESCRIPTION:

The Benton Area Chamber of Commerce is honored to welcome Mrs. Ginger Zee as the keynote speaker at its annual banquet on Tuesday, March 10, 2020, at the Benton Event Center.  Tables for 10 can be purchased for $750 and individual tickets are $80.

Ginger Zee is the chief meteorologist at ABC News covering the nation's weather on Good Morning America and across all ABC News broadcasts and digital platforms.  She also hosts an ABC News original digital series, Food Forecast, focused on climate and its impact on agriculture.  Known to millions as the face of ABC News' meteorology team as well as for her third place finish on Dancing With the Stars, Zee's story goes far beyond the confines of television.

With the release of her New York Times best-selling memoir Natural Disaster:  I Cover Them, I am One, Zee brings readers along the immensely difficult path that took her from a depressed fledgling meteorologist to the first female chief meteorologist at a network.  Along with depression, Zee suffered from misguided relationships, including an abusive one that wouldn't end until she was forced to call the police.  After a deep soul search, she checked herself into a mental health hospital ten days before starting her job at ABC.  Zee was struggling with significant mental health issues that went undiagnosed until she entered into inpatient therapy that helped her get on track.

Despite all this dysfunction, self-doubt and turmoil, Zee has managed to build a remarkable career and family.  Now, she is bringing her message of resilience and self-care to Saline County.  Zee will leave audiences feeling renewed, empowered and intensely moved by her raw, poignant chronicle of life as a natural disaster.
