Speakers Mark Bezos: Activist, volunteer firefighter

Mark Bezos is the SVP, Development, Communications & Events at Robin Hood, the leading poverty-fighting charity in New York City. Bezos joined Robin Hood following the sale of his advertising agency, excited to have found a way to use his powers of persuasion for good.

Bezos is the Assistant Captain of a volunteer fire company in Westchester County, New York, where he lives with his wife and four children. He is continuously amazed and motivated by the everyday acts of heroism--big and small--that surround him.

"Fire fighting volunteer saves pair of shoes. Small acts or small, all matter. Get in game. Save the shoes :-) #TED"
