Stacey Bess Biography

Stacey Bess is an inspiring educator and author who lectures on the value of mentorship, service, and overcoming hardship. Drawing on her intriguing inspirational personal narrative of educating homeless children in a tiny shed known as The School with No Name, she provides audiences eager to make a difference profound insights and lessons that they can apply to their community or business. Bess taught kindergarten through sixth grade at The School with No Name for 11 years, through ups and downs and many personal problems, including a fight with thyroid cancer, an event that made a profound shift in both the teacher and her students. During that period, she learned that by teaching and modeling love, self-worth, personal strength, and bravery, she could reach youngsters who had previously been declared unteachable. These kids grow up to be live proof that Bess' techniques work. To inspire and encourage others with a love for service, Bess wrote the memoir Nobody Don't Love Nobody, which was transformed into the Hallmark Hall of Fame film Beyond the Blackboard, starring Emily VanCamp, in April 2011. People began to notice Bess and her exceptional success with hopeless youngsters when she released her first book and garnered the backing of the Utah community. She has received several major local and national honors. She shared the prestigious National Jefferson Award for Greatest Public Service with First Lady Barbara Bush, Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackman, and Ambassador Walter Annenberg.
