Hugh Herr Booking Agency Profile

Book Hugh Herr for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Hugh Herr is an American biophysicist, engineer, and rock climber. Growing up, Herr was a prodigy rock climber and by only 8 years old he had scaled the face of the Mount Temple in the Canadian Rockies and at only 17, he was known to be one of the best climbers in the United States. After getting caught in a blizzard while trying to hike Mount Washington, Herr had suffered severe frostbite and had to have his legs amputated below the knees. After months of surgeries and rehabilitation, he was back to climbing again using specialized prostheses that he designed. After his climbing career, Herr earned an undergraduate degree in physics at Millersville University, and went on to earn a master’s degree in mechanical engineering at MIT, and a Ph.D. in biophysics from Harvard University. Herr is a professor at the MIT Media Lab. He directs the Biomechatronics research group and co-directs the MIT Center for Extreme Bionics..

The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
