Keynote Kathy Cronkite

Kathy Cronkite is a popular author, journalist, and public speaker. As one of the millions who lives with clinical depression, she has become a tireless champion for mental health. As an advocate, Cronkite delivers a clear message: “Depression must be accepted as the medical condition it is in order to combat the stigma attached to it and to make help available for those who suffer from it..” Her book, On the Edge of Darkness: Conversations About Conquering Depression, has received wide acclaim for its informative and eloquent treatment of mental illness. In writing the book, Cronkite interviewed celebrities who suffer from depression, including Mike Wallace, Joan Rivers, Dick Clark, and William Styron. A Central Texas resident, she was a longtime commentator on KLBJ-AM Radio.
