Timeline

2019

ABC News commentator Peter Jennings of World News Tonight saw a local news story on Lakey’s art show in aid of the blind, and ran the story nationally; Jennings also requested one of the paintings from the artist, which was donated to the charity Lighthouse For The Blind in New York City.

Lakey’s personal story and artistic career have been covered on nationally televised syndicated and broadcast network programs, including ABC’s “World News Tonight” and “Good Morning America”, NBC’s “The Today Show”, CNN, Fox News, “Inside Edition”, “Hard Copy”.
