Bradford and Bryan Manning are typical brothers – they poke fun at each other, drive each other crazy and oh yeah – create a t-shirt empire for the sake of funding research for degenerative retinal diseases so one day they can be cured of Stargardt disease – a disease that greatly diminishes central vision. Listen how 2 Blind Brothers and 1 blind host Mark, muse about living with a visual impairment, competing in sports, dating, standardized tests to tricks of skirting an invisible disability by using personality and social cues. From learning how to read braille at an early age to quitting their careers to design and produce t-shirts that are soft so consumers that are blind can easily identify by touch when shopping and everyone can enjoy one of life’s simple pleasures – a nice, well fitted comfortable t-shirt. www.twoblindbrothers.com

"Mark Farrell is an engaging speaker and a remarkably talented man whose personal experiences overcoming adversity are inspirational. I am very grateful that our students and faculty had the chance to hear him speak and to meet him during one of our major events at our school. His moving stories about his own experiences with visual impairment enhanced our understanding about the challenges associated with vision loss and the power of the human spirit to meet those challenges with determination and dignity."
