Fresh out of college, with a degree in Speech Pathology, I landed
my first real job. It was as a teacher to a special needs
population of students. I was asked to participate in a
revolutionary early intervention educational program for kids with
severe communication problems. Little did I know that this
extraordinary year would entirely transform me and my understanding
of the world.
What I learned is that each of us has our own way of
communicating, our own way of reaching others. But we can only do
this if we're invited into a community of genuine love and
listening.
Solitary Genius is my recollection of this remarkable year. I
met and fell in love with a group of children (all of whom were
entering school for the first time) of undeniable intelligence who
simply needed a different kind of educational support to be heard
and to succeed. What they needed-and what I provided-was teaching
from the heart. As these children blossomed, so did I. This is the
story of helping a group of silent, solitary geniuses find their
way into the larger world. As I did this, I also found myself.
