Talk radio personality Bill Handel will make a local
appearance Saturday, March 21 as part of Congregation Beth Shalom of the Santa
Clarita Valley’s Distinguished Speaker Series.

Handel is the popular host of KFI AM 640's
"Handel on the Law" and "Handel Yourself in the Morning"
programs, and was recently named Radio and Records News/Talk Personality of the
Year. Best know for offering "marginal legal advice" and his take on
current events, he is described as being highly informative, hilarious, edgy
and entertaining.

In addition to his success in talk radio, Bill Handel is a renowned expert on
the legal aspects of reproductive technology and has provided legal counsel for
several hundred cases of third party reproduction. Handel serves as director of
the center for Surrogate Parenting, Inc. & Egg Donation, Inc. in Encino, California and Annapolis, Maryland, which has been helping couples become families for
nearly 25 years.

The CBS Distinguished Speaker Series has presented such renowned guests as
actor/director Leonard Nimoy; radio commentator Dennis Prager; and father of
slain Wall Street Journal reporter, Daniel Pearl, Dr. Judea Pearl, who is the
founder of the Daniel Pearl Foundation. A Distinguished Performance Series was
introduced last fall with the appearance of Grammy award-winning singer and songwriter
Doug Cotler.
