Ellen’s Hero

“Not just now, but what you’ve always cared about. What you were influenced by and what has made you the amazing person that you are today.” She then played a video for both Ellen and the audience to see for the first time. And it was clear that Ellen was in fact surprised, judging by her tears.

The video introduced everyone to conservationist Dian Fossey and initiative she began but sadly was never able to finish. Dian wrote “Gorillas in the Mist” and she was one of Ellen’s heroes.

Ellen was about to be moved to tears.
