Frank L. Henninger is an amateur mountaineer, kayaker, hiker, writer, poet, college bookstore director, adventure traveler and spiritual seeker. He holds a Masters degree in Liberal Studies from Villanova University.
Frank has given more than a dozen slide shows and inspirational lectures on his adventure experiences. He enjoys sharing with audiences the physical as well as spiritual rewards of heading outdoors. In 1999 and 2000 Frank climbed Mount Rainier, considered by many to be the longest endurance climb in the lower 48 states, and used the journals he kept during his climbs to write "Compass Points: Finding A Mid-life Bearing on Mount Rainier."
The book is both a spiritual odyssey and adventure travelogue that appeals to anyone fascinated with mountains or finding themselves on a spiritual journey through life.
Frank is currently working on two additional books about his Mount Rainier experiences. One is a sequel to Compass Points, telling the tale of his subsequent third and fourth climbs of Mount Rainier (in 2002 and 2005); and the other a personal growth/self help book explaining the seven spiritual lessons learned on his Mount Rainier climbs and other wilderness adventures, that he teaches in his slide shows. He is also creating his first audio CD of Native American style flute and didgeridoo music.
Your group or organization can benefit from Frank's experience by scheduling a lecture, workshop, slide show, musical performance or book reading / signing. Visit the contact page to get in touch. |
