'''ERIC LINDNER''' has volunteered on and off since high school, some 35 years ago. During college at George Washington University and grad school at the University of Chicago, he ran errands with seniors, read to children in a hospital burn unit, helped Seattle’s U.S. Attorney lock up a bunch of neo-Nazi terrorists, and tutored a wily pre-teen from Chicago’s South Side, conspiring with his mother to keep him out of a fearsome street gang. Later, as a high-powered attorney and CEO of an international company, he served on various committees and boards to raise money for non-profits and political causes. In 2009, he began volunteering at the Hospice Support of Fauquier County, which he stumbled upon, on a morning coffee run, in the small Virginia town where he had lived for nearly 20 years. The experience proved life-altering and inspired his debut book, Hospice Voices. Lindner shares his passion for volunteering with his wife, Ellen, and their two grown children, Sarah and Matt—a passion passed down from his parents, Mary Jean and Thaddeus Alphonse, fiercely independent and thriving octogenarians. He lives in Warrenton, Virginia.
