An internationally renowned bioethicist, author, educator, health humanities scholar, and thought leader in disability justice and culture, Rosemarie Garland-Thomson pioneered the field of Disability Studies in the 1990s. She has since turned her education and background in the humanities, which includes teaching at Emory, UCLA, Howard, and Brandeis, into global advocacy work. Highlights of her career include: serving as a senior advisor on bioethics research at the Hastings Center, consulting for corporations such as Google and Nike, and traveling internationally for public speaking engagements on issues involving healthcare ethics, equity and inclusion, accessibility, and disability culture and the arts. Sponsored by the Wittenberg Department of English, Garland-Thomson’s talk is free and open to the public. Ness Auditorium is located inside Hollenbeck Hall on the Wittenberg campus.
