Secrets, Truths, & Whispers

Author Biography

Tony Garcia has taught and coached at the middle school level for nearly three decades. He began teaching when his own children were very young. In fact, his eldest daughter was in kindergarten at the school where he completed his student teaching. Additionally, through all his years of coaching, none were more satisfying than the seasons he was able to coach his own sons. Garcia feels he has learned so many more lessons from his children than he could ever impart to them. Many of those lessons helped shape him as an educator and a coach. Garcia has also garnered lessons from the difficult personal road he has traveled. Over the past several years, he has worked tirelessly to achieve his goal of running the Boston Marathon. He began chronicling his journey to Boston and soon realized he was not actually writing about running at all. The hard lessons he was learning about failure and strength and success applied to all areas of his life.These lessons have found a home in Garcia’s latest volume, Secrets, Truths, & Whispers. Garcia’s gift as a writer exists in his ability to reach his audience on a personal and profound level.
