Modern Role Models: Bono

Product Description

Paul Hewson - better known as Bono - has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize and is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. No other artist can claim those dual honors. As the lead singer of U2, Bono has changed the way the world experiences music.
But he has also changed the way the world sees itself by drawing attention to the poorest people on Earth. Bono works tirelessly to raise millions of dollars for African AIDS patients. He meets with presidents and prime ministers to provide debt relief for poverty-stricken nations. And he promotes social justice from the stage and podium.
Bono's albums with U2, such as Joshua Tree and How to Dismantle and Atomic Bomb, are rock-and-roll classics. And his humanitarian efforts, especially his campaigsn on behalf of Africa, have made him one of the most respected and revered rock stars in history.
