Van's Appearances & Speaking Events

Over the years Van has earned his reputation as a well-known broadcaster and great speaker. He continues to share his passion for radio, God and Iowa by speaking or broadcasting at local events. He's often asked to speak about radio, faith, his inventions, his books, his experiences with famous people and tell his funny and emotional stories. You can see Van at one of his appearances coming up! 

AND!!! Another Van Harden authored book is coming and it looks like it will be a blockbuster!  It is unlike any other and sounds as though it will be getting national attention and acclaim. It is at the publisher now in the final stages of production and getting very close to release. We'll let you know when it becomes available.  It will be in bookstores everywhere, but we will make it available here at vanharden.com, probably for less! Stay tuned.
