Over the past 6-7 years my primary focus has been the New York City disability rights movement--in part because my parents, Mollie and Julius Shaw, were among the New York City movement’s founders, in the 1960s. I am working on putting together the history of the New York City movement.<br /><br />Among other aspects of this larger project, I am working on an essay about Tiny Tim and the disability rights movement. As you know, there has been a lot of writing on this subject the past 10-15 years, and as part of my essay I am hoping to contact the authors of those pieces, to learn something of what motivated them to write on this subject and to discuss the disability blogosphere, the disability rights movement and disability culture more generally. <br /><br />I very much enjoyed your post about Tiny Tim and Rudolph. That is why I am writing to you.<br /><br />I do hope that you might be interested in talking with me. We can do so either by phone or by Skype. I would much prefer a real-time talk to an email exchange, but if you prefer to communicate by email that we can do that too. <br /><br />To learn more about me and my work, please go to my website, www.WarrenShawHistorian.com I can be reached by email at warren@warrenshawhistorian.com or by telephone, at 917-620-8564.<br /><br />I look forward to hearing from you, and thanks.<br /><br />--Warren<br />Warren Shawnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34418484.post-392414321008964952006-12-23T08:53:00.000-06:002006-12-23T08:53:00.000-06:00i have read all(?) the links and am now speechless...i have read all(?) the links and am now speechless... in the laughing/crying/thinking kind of way.n.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17677317372343868030noreply@blogger.com
