Front of the Class Hallmark Hall of Fame Movie
CBS to air movie based on Brad Cohen's life
We are very excited to announce the Hallmark Hall of Fame's presentation of "Front of the Class," a TV movie inspired by the book by Brad Cohen, which will premiere on CBS Sunday, December 7, 2008, 9-11pm Eastern.
Many of you may know Brad through his involvement with TSA. He is a Board Member of the Georgia Chapter, and he has presented many times at our National Conference, most recently this past April. He has made many television appearances, including "Oprah." And many of you may have read his autobiography, Front of the Class, Brad's inspiring story of growing up with Tourette Syndrome, and his struggle to have others believe that he could be the gifted teacher he knew he could be.
We are thrilled that everyone across the country will now get to see the wonderful Brad Cohen that we have been fortunate enough to know and see an accurate, educational and inspiring depiction of Tourette Syndrome. It features a star-studded cast, including Emmy Award-winner Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond) as Brad's mother, Treat Williams (Everwood) as Brad's father, Sarah Drew (Everwood, Mad Men) as Brad's wife, Dominic Scott Kay (Pirates of the Caribbean:At World's End) as young Brad, and new-comer Jimmy Wolk as Brad, who gives a heartwarming and compelling performance.
