Kenny Tedford was born with brain damage that left him with the intellectual ability of a 4th grader, deaf in both ears, legally blind in one eye, partial paralysis on his left side, and difficulty speaking until the age of ten-a remarkable combination of Helen Keller and Forrest Gump. Mocked in school, Kenny could have easily been bitter with life, especially when teachers, counselors, and the Board of Education said he'd never pass the 3rd grade. But Kenny proved them wrong by graduating high school, attending Gallaudet University for the Deaf in Washington, DC, earning a B.A. in Theater from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, TN, and finally a master's degree in Storytelling from East Tennessee State University. Along the way, Kenny survived cancer, heart attacks, breaking his neck, family troubles, and heartbreak. But none of the hardships stopped him from living his dreams as a storyteller. Kenny's life embodies contrasts-light and shadow, setbacks and triumphs-forming a path that's entirely his own. It is a life filled with friendship, faith, and peace. And grace. ** Bestselling author Paul Smith is one of the world's leading experts on organizational storytelling. His work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Inc.
