Living Before Deaf Awareness with Ruth A. Reppert, author of "Adventures of a CODA, Child of Deaf Adults, a Memoir"

Turn your clock back to 1933 when there were no “interpreters,” no “American Sign Language,” and no understanding of people who are Deaf. In that setting, picture this baby with normal hearing who was born to a mother and father who were Deaf and who communicated in silent hand movements. This account begins at the moment of the writer’s birth to describe the hard times and the progress made in a span of eighty-three years. The author takes the reader back in time to experience her challenging journey almost firsthand. She invites you to preview her book and to read its reviews on the Amazon website. You will not want to miss this incomparable opportunity to recognize the roots of today’s advancements. A book signing will follow.
