from nobody to a hero

                  Heroes come in many different forms. The first example of a nobody that became a hero is Ella Fitzgerald. Ella, who eventually became the "Queen of Jazz" started out living on the streets and visiting soup kitchens for meals. After getting solid ground beneath her feet, she was able to be one of the most influential singers in history. She even got to sing for President Reagan while he was in office. I think she is a hero because she influences children and adults daily to pursue their dreams, no matter what it takes.
                  The next example of nobody transformed into a hero is Mr.Sullenberger. Nobody knew who he was prior to the events of January 15, 2009. Now a retired air captain, his name has became synonymous with hero. He ensured the safety of every passenger on his plane before worrying about himself. He was able to work under pressure and made sure that no lives were lost. He was extremely brave and courageous for what he did, as well as brilliant.
