Andre is a very good speaker. Was very funny, but informative. He had cute, personal stories for most of personal questions asked. And... he is absolutely adorable.Written on Nov 23 2009

Event was overall good, but it was a little disappointing that Andre bascially only re-told stories from his book- verbatim. having read the book cover to cover i found it redundant.Written on Nov 23 2009

Having someone knowledgable about tennis like Barry McKay interview Andre was a smart move. Barry knew what questions to ask and was able to keep the interview moving at a nice clip. Andre, of course, is very articulate and personable, and is a true entertainer both on and off the court. A great event!Written on Nov 23 2009

Andre was a charming storyteller and was very friendly. I like that they kept the autographing line moving with no pictures and personalizations.Written on Nov 23 2009

Description
During his exhilarating and epic twenty-one year professional career, Agassi captured eight Grand Slam single championships and is the only man to win a career “Golden Slam” – all four Grand Slam singles titles plus the Olympic gold medal.
Agassi reflects candidly on his life both on and off the court – from dropping out of high school and turning pro at 16, to pivotal matches with rivals Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras, and Roger Federer, his personal relationships with Brooke Shields and wife Stefanie Graf, and his role as an education advocate and philanthropist.
As the founder of the Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, Agassi has raised more than $85 million for the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy, an acclaimed K-12 charter school for underprivileged children in his hometown, Las Vegas.
