  • DR Leonardo Buscaglia's - Only you can make the difference.
    His talk with Ford Motor Company's Sales men and woman.
    Felice Leonardo "Leo" Buscaglia Ph.D. (31 March 1924 -- 12 June 1998), also known as "Dr Love," was an author and motivational speaker, and a professor in the Department of Special Education at the University of Southern California.
    Felice Leonardo Buscaglia was born in Los Angeles, CA on March 31, 1924 into a family of Italian immigrants.He spent his early childhood in Aosta, Italy, before going back to the United States for education.He was a graduate of Theodore Roosevelt High School (Los Angeles). After Navy service in World War II, Buscaglia entered the University of Southern California, where he earned three degrees (BA 1950; MA 1954; PhD 1963) before eventually joining the faculty. Upon retirement, Buscaglia was named Professor at Large, one of only two such designations on campus at that time.
    He gained fame on the USC campus through his non-credit course titled "Love 1A," which became the basis for his first book, titled simply LOVE. His dynamic speaking style was discovered by the Public Broadcasting System (PBS) and his televised lectures earned great popularity in the 1980s. At one point his talks, always shown during fund raising periods, were the top earners of all PBS programs. This national exposure, coupled with the heartfelt storytelling style of his books, helped make all of his titles national Best Sellers; five were once on the New York Times Best Sellers List simultaneously.
    While teaching at USC, Buscaglia was moved by a student's suicide to contemplate human disconnectedness and the meaning of life, and began a non-credit class he called Love 1A. His book and numerous recorded and televised lectures, some of which became available through PBS, became extremely well received.
    Buscaglia died of a heart attack on June 12, 1998 at his home in Glenbrook, Nevada, near Lake Tahoe. He was 74.

    I use to listen to Leo when I was a teenager. I’m 60 years old now and he changed me as a kid all about love. It really made me what I am today and how I relate to people. Great speaker and teacher.

    When I started at my first job, this video was part of the induction. 30 Years later, I still cry every time I watch it.
    I battled for years to find a copy of it. Now thanks to technology this video will live on. I think the whole world should watch it.

    Always has appalled me that he never received the Nobel Peace prize. Had the pleasure of seeing, hugging him.

    I have an audio cassette of this presentation at Ford. I was working for one of their advertising companies at the time. I think the girl with glasses crying after the poem "Things You Didn't Do" was ME!! And after his presentation I even got a chance to hug him!

    This has to be one of the weirdest Buscaglia lectures with him dispensing his ideas about relationships/love to car salesmen.

    The guru of cheap phony sentimentality that denies the reality of what real courage and human sacrifice requires.
