For individuals who are both deaf and blind, even the most commonplace of tasks can pose immense challenges. This unique collection of interviews with twelve deaf-blind individuals from around the globe - editor Scott M. Stoffel among them - paints an honest and compelling picture of the overlooked realities of living with multiple physical disabilities. Rather than heralding singular achievements that distinguish the few, "Deaf-Blind Reality" celebrates daily hard-won successes that allow disabled individuals to lead productive and autonomous, yet socially engaged lives.
Scott M. Stoffel is a retired systems engineer living in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, who now works as a freelance writer. He is believed to be the first deaf-blind individual ever to have earned an engineering degree - he graduated from Temple University with a bachelor of science in electrical engineering.
