Anthony Ray Hinton is an American author and motivational speaker who is best known for his memoir "The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row." Hinton was wrongfully convicted of two murders in Alabama in 1985 and spent nearly 30 years on death row before his conviction was overturned in 2015 with the help of the Equal Justice Initiative, led by Bryan Stevenson. Hinton's powerful story is one of resilience and hope in the face of a deeply flawed justice system. Since his release, he has become an advocate for criminal justice reform, working to raise awareness about wrongful convictions and the need for change within the legal system. His experiences have given him a unique perspective on life, forgiveness, and the power of faith.
