LeAnn Thieman


What can we learn from war? LeAnn Thieman (Tee-man), a nurse who was "accidentally" caught up in the Vietnam Orphan Airlift in 1975, brings multiple lessons to her keynote presentations. In her book, "This Must Be My Brother," she details her daring adventures as she helped rescue 300 babies when Saigon was falling to the Communists. An ordinary person, she struggled through extraordinary circumstances to inspire her audiences into their own ordinary greatness. LeAnn’s story has been featured on FOX-TV News, in Newsweek Magazine’s Voices of the Century issue, and on the PAX TV show, It’s A Miracle.

LeAnn brings all of the life-changing lessons learned from the airlift experience and her 34 years of nursing to her extraordinary keynote presentations. Believing we all have individual "war zones," LeAnn inspires audiences to balance their lives, truly live their priorities and make a difference in the world.

After her story was featured in "Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul," LeAnn became one of Chicken Soup's most prolific writers, with stories in eleven more Chicken Soup books. That, and her devotion to nursing, made her the ideal co-author of the New York Times best seller "Chicken Soup for the Nurse's Soul," "Chicken Soup for the Christian Woman's Soul" and "Chicken Soup for the Caregiver's Soul"

While health organizations are an obvious "niche" for her keynote addresses and seminars, LeAnn’s audiences have grown to include all walks of life. Now cattlemen, contractors, and corporate America appreciate her message! One CEO summed it up best when he said, "I'm going to live my life differently after hearing you today."
