ShiftCon 2020 is happening in just 2 more months and we are beyond excited to welcome our next Keynote Speaker to the ShiftCon community – Hill Harper!
You’ve seen his face many times, but you’d be shocked to learn all of the amazing work he has done and continues to do!
Among his many titles, Hill Harper is a humanitarian, an award-winning actor, best-selling author, entrepreneur, health and wellness ambassador/educator and philanthropist. Hill is perhaps most recognizable for his starring role in the CBS hit television drama CSI: NY where he played eccentric Dr. Sheldon Hawkes (for which, he won three NAACP Image Awards for Best Lead Actor in a Drama Series). You can also see him in the CBS Network’s Covert Affairs, Limitless, Showtime’s award-winning drama Homeland, as well as ABC’s #1 television drama, The Good Doctor.
Just a few more facts you may or may not know about Hill Harper:
- Hill has authored four New York Times bestsellers: Letters to a Young Brother, Letters to a Young Sister, The Conversation, and The Wealth Cure which chronicled his diagnosis with thyroid cancer and his journey to health.
- He’s the Founder of the Manifest Your Destiny Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering underserved youth through mentorship, scholarship and grant programs.
- Co-owner of the award-winning New Orleans hotel, International House, a successful coffee franchise in downtown Detroit called The Roasting Plant and The Architect & Co. – a health and wellness company that manufactures natural skin and hair products sold on Amazon.
- He served on the President’s Cancer Panel having been appointed by President Obama in 2011 (Fun fact: The two are actually college buddies from Harvard Law School!)
- Hill was an integral part of the movement to bring clean water to Flint, Michigan and continues to fight to the end this crisis.
- He graduated magna cum laude from Brown University with a Bachelor of Arts degree and was named Valedictorian of his department. Harper then graduated with a J.D.

Hill also holds multiple honorary doctoral degrees!
