I Dream of Things That Never Were

from My blurred opinion · host Timothy West

This episode is with Ken and Anna Kunken. When Ken was 20 he broke his neck playing football for Cornell University in 1970, leaving him almost totally paralyzed from the shoulders down. After a lengthy hospitalization, Ken returned to Cornell where he completed his undergraduate degree in engineering. Ken then earned a Master of Arts degree at Cornell in education, as well as a Master of Education degree at Columbia University in psychology. Ken became a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor. He worked for more than two years at Abilities Inc., where he provided vocational and placement counseling to severely disabled individuals. Wanting to accomplish still more, Ken enrolled in Hofstra University’s School of Law. Ken then worked for more than 40 years as a Nassau County assistant district attorney, where he became a Deputy Bureau Chief. He is also a father of triplets, and a husband. Ken is one of those people that does not let the disability define him, it's just a part of him. He is an inspiration to anybody with a disability everywhere.  His website https://kenkunken.com
