Disability History: Jack Catlin, Chicago, IL

Image for It's Our Story project. You see an American flag with the picture of the United States that's inside the upper right side of the flag instead of white starts. On the right side it says: Power. Passion. Pride.

It’s Our Story is a national initiative to make disability history public and accessible. Scott Cooper recorded and collected over 1,300 video interviews from disability leaders across the country since 2005. Check out a video uploaded on August 7, 2010:

Jack Catlin of Chicago, Illinois, speaks about the concept of universal design, why it’s important, and how it has been implemented in Chicago.
Jack has developed accessibility codes for city, state, and federal agencies. He is a licensed architect and member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), and is the first practicing architect to serve as chair of the U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board).
