CTABS Members,
I hope ya’ll had a great conference call tonight. I think this is an interesting idea; we certainly need more blind people with good attitudes participating in the media. And we have talent, I think, right here in Connecticut: our own Gigi Hamberger, who you may remember from the state convention lunch who just got back from the competition in Poland.

Elizabeth Harrington is completely blind. She was born with anophthalmia, which means without eyes. Her eyes are prosthetics and she also has cerebral palsy, but she never let’s that stop her from fulfilling her dreams. Elizabeth has been working with award winning filmmaker Tim Greene for over six years and has teamed with the director to document her story of her dreams and goals to go to Hollywood and make a short film and walk the red carpet. The films inspirational soundtrack will feature Oscar worthy musical talent who also have disabilities and who may have never received an opportunity to showcase their musical abilities on any of the signing competition television shows that are popular today. But now, as a compliment to the documentary musical talent from around the world will get a chance to shine. Together we can find the next Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles. We know the musical talent is out there and together we will provide a platform for them to shine. If you know of any singers or musicians with disabilities who would like to be considered for the documentary’s soundtrack or someone with a disability who has an inspiring story to tell the world and would like to be featured in future series segments, send your video links and bio to:timgreene2012 at yahoo.com.
The filmmaker wants to turn this project into a series of 36 inspirational segments about people with disabilities from around the world who overcome all odds to fulfill their dreams, complete with soundtracks featuring singers and musicians with disabilities. Please help spread the word to your friends and family. Follow “Hollywood Here We Come” on Twitter:https://twitter.com/timgreenefilms .
