In the mid-1980s one of President Ronald Reagan's favorite speechwriters was the talented wordsmith Peggy Noonan.
She crafted some of Reagan's most impressive speeches, including teone he delivered on the 40th anniversary of the D-Day invasion, as well as his televised message to the nation after the Challenger disaster in 1986.
And then, working with the presidential campaign of Vice President George HW Bush, Noonan came up with even more phrases that have stuck in our memories.
Along the way, Noonan became an accomplished speaker in her own right, and in 1998, wrote a book to help others facing the prospect of speaking in public.
