Christina Brown Fisher, journalist and traumatic brain injury survivor, speaks with the sister of Michael Hutchence. He was the lead singer of the Australian rock band INXS until he died by suicide in 1997. Tina Hutchence says her brother kept a secret from their family, the band, and his fans. Five years before his death, Michael Hutchence suffered a traumatic brain injury after a taxi driver allegedly attacked him. The blow fractured his skull, resulting in permanent brain damage. His sister reflects on Michael Hutchence’s rise to stardom, and the untreated brain injury she believes was responsible for his abrupt personality change that ultimately contributed to his death.
