Ahh, thanks. At first when I saw the picture I thought to myself, omfg what did he do to himself to make himself look half of his age, but I realize it wasn't "Natale" that I was thinking of. It was "N-a-t-u-r-a-l-e". Sheesh!

So, never mind...

There's a new deaf actor, I forgot his name. He's going to come out a new movie or a show. Ill check it out again. He looks young and handsome.

GOOD there aren't many handsome younger guys for me to stare at on TV right now

Dr. Reginald Redding, Ph.D, first black Director at R.I. School for the Deaf.

Levonian · 08-03-2005, 11:48 PM

You know what the sad thing is? There aren’t any really famous Deaf people. If you went out on the street like Jay Leno does in his ‘Jaywalking’ routine and asked random people to name a famous deaf person, very few people would be able to name any. A few people might know who Marlee Matlin or Christy Smith are, but that’s about it.

DeafSCUBA98 · 08-04-2005, 01:34 AM

Chris smith (deaf doctor) yet he's famous because he's in many different shows and giving alot of interviews about his carrer.
