Advisory Board member Tom West clued me in to the run on dyslexia stories in the media recently. Here’s today’s entry (also from the NY Times).
Money quote:
“We found that dyslexics who succeed had overcome an awful lot in their lives by developing compensatory skills,” Professor Logan said in an interview. “If you tell your friends and acquaintances that you plan to start a business, you’ll hear over and over, ‘It won’t work. It can’t be done.’ But dyslexics are extraordinarily creative about maneuvering their way around problems.”
