Matt Faulkner video screening and book signing tonight

Join Matthew Faulkner ’13 for a video screening and book signing tonight (April 29) at 7:30 p.m. in Regis North.

The documentary, Recovery, is based on the book Most Likely to Survive which details Matt’s miraculous recovery from traumatic brain injury.

An automobile accident on March 2, 2009, while Faulkner was a senior at West Seneca West Senior High School, left him in a deep coma for almost two months with almost no chance of survival. Against all odds, he walked out of ECMC 103 days later, and across the stage at his high school graduation just two weeks later. A senior finance major, Matt will graduate this May from Canisius.

Copies of Most Likely to Survive will be available for purchase before the book signing. Copies of Recovery can be ordered during the event.
