"Superbeast" author talk

Celebrate with us on International Day of People with Disability!

Join David Hall OAM PLY as he discusses his newly released autobiography, Superbeast, in an engaging interview by Taylor Aiken, Seven Network Senior News Reporter.

Superbeast gives you a truly inspirational, emotional and humorous journey through the life of one of Australia’s greatest sporting champions. In his own words David tells of the night that changed his life forever. That night would see him become a double-leg amputee at the age of 16.

In a ‘can’t-put-down’ book, David takes you on a ‘tell-all’ journey through his life that started as a baby born in Camperdown and adopted. Through his young years as a shy boy who lived his life through every sport available, a young teen newly employed and living the good life, to becoming the best wheelchair tennis player in the world and Paralympic Gold medalist at the Sydney 2000 Games!

Superbeast will have readers shedding tears, laughing, shaking their head in disbelief and gaining admiration for a down-to-earth Australian who in his own words can inspire so many: “Despair can be lonely, but beyond it the sweetest things are the ones you don’t even know of yet, but only if you’re willing to find them.”

Superbeast is available in paperback, hardcover or Kindle from Amazon or paperback at the event for $35, which David can autograph for you. It will make a great Christmas gift and summer holiday read!

“David dedicated himself wholeheartedly into tennis and every opportunity life has offered, and in the process became one of the greats of our sport.” —Rod Laver
