“We all have a journey” says 60 Minutes contributor Byron Pitts. His amazing journey, revealed in his new memoir "Step Out on Nothing: How Faith and Family Helped Me Conquer Life’s Challenges," describes his painful struggle to overcome illiteracy and the great people who blessed his life along the way.
