Steven E. Brown

Historian Steven E. Brown writes, teaches, talks, travels, and lives the mission of the organization he co-founded, the Institute on Disability Culture: "promoting pride in the history, activities, and cultural identity of individuals with disabilities throughout the world." His seminal essays are collected in "Movie Stars and Sensuous Scars;" his path on the road from pain to healing is the focus of his memoir, "Surprised to be Standing;" and his desire to connect to younger generations in his Middle Grade biography, "Ed Roberts: Wheelchair Genius."
