You're looking for an insightful, entertaining, energizing keynote. Someone to light up the room, leaving your audience with a richer sense of themselves, the world, and our infinite possibilities. You need a skilled professional who will work with you to achieve the vision and goals of your event.
"As a result of your preparations, attendees remarked to me that 'this guy was really talking to us!'"
—Ray Grott, 2007 & 2008 Conference Chair,
Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society (RESNA)
Gary Karp brings all of this, and more, to your meeting. His passion for living—and his desire to help all people reach for their potential—pours out with every word. He is a leading voice in the disability movement, spreading the word of the historic emergence of people with disabilities and all it means in our lives, the workplace, and society as a whole.
As an author, journalist, and advocate he is highly knowledgeable and well-connected. No wonder that the National Spinal Cord Injury Association inducted him into their SCI Hall of Fame as a disability educator!
He draws from personal experience as a wheelchair user since 1973, through which he has learned much about the innate capacity in us all to survive and reach for our potential. And he's also a skilled juggler!
Your attendees will appreciate his natural, engaging style...
"You have that special quality of making each of
us feel that you are talking to us individually."
—Cathy Parsa, American Association of Spinal Cord Injury Nurses
...and the compelling picture he paints of Modern Disability.
"Such an unexpectedly fresh and current view of
disability and its incredible transformations."
—Vanessa Williams, Lockheed Martin Space Systems
