About Sam Simon:
Sam Simon grew up in El Paso, Texas. In 1970 graduated law school to work with Ralph Nader’s first Public Interest Research Group, in Washington, DC, and spent about 35 years as a prominent lawyer in the public interest field. His became known for his work in breaking up ATT, which got him appearances on Face the Nation, Phil Donahue Show, Today, GMA –even Oprah Winfrey once.
He later became a senior fellow working for Intersections, the social justice ministry of the Collegiate Church of New York. He was trained in theatrical improv, which became the start of this theatrical career. His first play, The Actual Dance, Loves Ultimate Journey Through Breast Cancer, was about his role as carepartner (he says lovepartner) of his wife during her breast cancer. He toured that play for a nearly a decade, until diagnosed with Early Stage Alzheimer’s and has since written a new play, Dementia Man, an Existential Journey about this experience – to date. He advocates in the work for a radical new understanding of accessibility and support for people with cognitive issues.
