Blair

Disability:

Blair was involved in an auto accident at the age of 18 that left her in a wheelchair. Although they told her she could still have children, it was a huge blow. More than the physical changes, were the harsh judgments and stereotypes of our society.

Ability:

Blair is an actor, a director and an Adjunct Theatre Professor at Duchess Community College.

Blair has traveled across much of the world to research the current global accessibility standards for women with mixed abilities, mainly women in wheelchairs.

She hopes that the entertainment industry will eventually use REAL women in wheelchairs for filming TV and movies.

Our "Project VisAbility Inspirations" reflect the attitude, ability and strength it takes to succeed despite some of life's most intense challenges. By sharing these stories of achievement, we hope you will be as touched and motivated by them as we are… perhaps to join and support our program, and hopefully in some way that will change the perceptions about "disabilities", helping us to raise the VisAbility.
