Steve Brosnihan - resident cartoonist at Hasbro Children’s Hospital, Providence, Rhode Island

I kept Steve’s title lowercase because he usually does and because he doesn’t take himself too seriously, even though he’s undertaking the serious work of brightening the day of children, often with long term stays in the hospital. Steve cashed the $8 check for his first published cartoon, he met his hero and mentor Dr Seuss by arriving at his door mostly unannounced, he dressed up with girlfriend and then wife Diana Golden, the most influential adaptive skier in US history, for her chemotherapy sessions, and brought a city together with one kind gesture when he shined his bike light toward the hospital to say that he’d be thinking of a soon to be discharged patient. The patient flicked his room light in response.

Our greatest risk is taking no risk at all. Hall of Fame Paralympic athlete and the first "nearly unassisted" paraplegic to summit Mt Kilimanjaro in a handcycle Chris Waddell interviews people, who had been dropped into a situation that forced them to confront everything they'd thought to be true. "Experts in the Experience of Being Human," Paralympians, artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, share their fight/struggle/strategy to succeed in the face of adversity.
