About this event
Rick Ankiel, the Cardinals pitcher and outfielder who experienced a rollercoaster career like no other, will join “Missouri Guy” John Brown and other VIPs at the keynote event at the Missouri Book Festival. On stage at Washington High School Theater, Rick will discuss the highs and lows of a truly incomparable baseball career. Captured in his memoir The Phenomenon, Rick’s story of perseverance inspired baseball fans around the world–and it all happened right here in the Show Me State!
Leading up to Rick’s appearance, other special guests will join John that night for conversation about their formative years in Missouri and will reveal how their experiences helped them thrive on a national stage.
