Today the world lost an extraordinary human being.

Annemarie Roeper founded the Roeper School; authored more than 100 articles and book chapters, as well as three solo works;  was a civil rights activist, mentor, and educator; and a pioneer in the gifted educational community. She led the movement to emphasize the emotional needs of gifted learners alongside their intellectual needs, and through her work left the world of gifted education forever changed. A more complete, but hardly comprehensive list of her accomplishments appears in her obituary, available on the Roeper School’s website.

In celebration of a life so richly lived, Great Potential Press is proud to present an excerpt from her brilliant and inspiring book, The “I” of the Beholder. The complete book may be purchased in our store.
