One of America’s premier speakers breaks her personal silence to offer wisdom, guidance and humor gleaned from decades of activism.

A book that can carry us over mountains chaos and disappointment.

 “Since the first time we met, more than 30 years ago, Mary and I have shared a deep commitment to advocacy for those who cannot advocate for themselves.”

Judith Light
Author of the Guest Foreword to Uneasy Silence

“Mary Fisher is a woman of extraordinary courage and hope, inspiring generations of Americans from her groundbreaking speech as a person with AIDS to the 1992 Republican National Convention to her decades of work helping others with AIDS live openly and with dignity.

Mary Fisher has broken the Uneasy Silence that too many people with AIDS have had to bear. Because of Mary’s example, millions of AIDS/HIV patients are living fearlessly with compassion and activism in the face of discrimination and despair. Reading her inspiring words teaches all of us that each of us can make a difference.”

Nancy Pelosi
Former Speaker of the House of Representatives

She’s an artist activist confronting global power-brokers for four decades.

Mary Fisher has spent a lifetime giving voice to the voiceless. From the hush of hospices to the halls of power, she’s proven that one woman’s courage can yield change.  Her historic speech, “A Whisper of AIDS,” is  ranked by Oxford Press as one of the “100 Best American Speeches of the 20th Century.”
