As a kid and a teenager I remember thinking that representation in the media wasn't important to me. More that I wanted to see people with disability be ambitious and successful in my everyday life. Later I realised that this was because representation was so cringy at the time that I didn't feel represented by it. I think the UK has been ahead of us in terms or media representation (vividly remember reading BBC Ouch - and thinking - oh wow! As far as whether we are stalled in terms of progress.... I'm a writer more than an actor - so I think in some ways that has fewer barriers. But for me there is a way to go in making sure people with disability are invited to contribute to work BOTH about the experience of disability and also other topics - as reflects our full humanity.
