Having briefly met Ali 6 years ago at an adaptive yoga conference on rainy Saturday, I’m thrilled to see her career flourish! She won a Tony Award last Sunday for her role as Ado Annie in Oklahoma! and shattered the glass ceiling for actors in wheelchairs, becoming the first wheelchair-user to win a Tony. Here’s a bio I wrote on her this week for SPINALpedia
Congrats Ali!
It’s not very often I get a chance to talk about anything with another quad for so long. It was fun! Bob is in his 50’s, from Chicago, and has been paralyzed even longer than me.
