The American Printing House for the Blind (APH) has announced that nominations are being accepted now through April 30, 2023 for induction into the Hall of Fame for Leaders and Legends of the Blindness Field. Candidates are individuals who have made “transformative contributions to improve the lives of those who are blind or low vision” in areas such as program, curriculum, or technology development; published writing; education; leadership; advocacy; and professional practice. Previous winners of this honor, awarded since 2002, include “a fascinating cross-section of heroes and pioneers who not only shaped our rich history, philosophy, knowledge and skills, but also give us insights into current and future challenges.” The induction ceremonies will take place on October, during the Annual Meeting of the American Printing House for the Blind in Louisville, Kentucky.
