Article: Celebrated domestic violence survivor speaking in Tallahassee tonight

Carolyn Thomas is known as the “woman without a face.”

A domestic violence survivor, Thomas was shot in the face at close range by her ex-boyfriend, the same man who killed her mother.

His gunshot destroyed more than 80 percent of her face, but it didn’t destroy her voice – or her determination to share her story.

Thomas, who has appeared on national TV shows alongside Oprah and Larry King, will be at Florida State’s Alumni Center at 6 p.m. today to tell her amazing story of survival and triumph.
