-- a deaf model starting her career at late age!
Many models start their careers while young (before age of 20),
but a certain deaf woman started her career at the age of 25!
She travels across Europe taking on different modeling
assignments. Now nearing her thirties, her career is just
taking off, even though she is at the age when models
worry about their looks and future photo shoots.
-- deaf EMT better than hearing EMT!
Chad Grabousky is deaf and is an emergency medical technician
(EMT) with a Bethlehem, PA ambulance company. 4 years ago
at the age of 18, he graduated from a EMT program but could
not find a job; no one wanted to hire him. He would not give
up and found a EMT job in Bethlehem, about 60 miles from
where he lives. The boss knew it was a gamble when hiring
him. What does the boss say right now? The happy boss said:
He is better than some hearing staff!
- Jeff Rosen firing a hearing impaired attorney
Jeff Rosen is an attorney and he fired a hearing impaired
attorney for abuse of power! Jeff Rosen, the chairperson of
the National Council on Disability, an Obama political
appointee? No, not that deaf attorney Jeff Rosen, but yes,
the other Jeff Rosen that is hearing. He is the Santa Clara
County (California) district attorney. He fired prosecutor
Lisa Rogers because of personal misconduct with a domestic
issue. Lisa is deaf and has to depend on a stenographer to
keep up with the proceedings.
