Rubin "Hurricane" Carter is one of the world's most powerful
speakers. Hollywood studios and legendary songwriters have been
moved and inspired by his story.
In 1966, Carter was a top-ranked prizefighter, one match away form
the World Title, when he was arrested for murders he did not commit.
Convicted and sentenced to life in prison, it took 20 years and
another two agonizing trials to free him.
Today, as a motivational speaker, Rubin takes his audiences on a
journey of personal determination, enlightening them on the power of
self-esteem and worth, and the importance of never giving up hope.
(NSB only represents Rubin Carter for professional speaking
engagements. We are not able to pass along requests for advocacy of
victim's assistance issues. Those requests should be directed to
Mr.Carter at his organization, Innocence International.)
Client Testimonials
"Face to face, Carter has a penetrating intensity. His rich
baritone has a gospel cadence, Southern warmth and the wisdom of a
man who has had more time than most to reflect on his fate. He seems
to have inherited the silver tongue of his Georgia-born father, who
is a preacher. As Rubin talks, his stories are like polished stone,
as well worn as a jailhouse floor."
