Deanne Bray is hard-of-hearing . . . I don't know too much about her, but I did see her at Deaf West Theatre in "Road to Revolution" and "Big River". She's married to a deaf man, Troy Kotsur, who is an actor. I've seen Deanne on several other clips of shows having to deal with deafness, and each time she signed as well as spoke. Sorry I can't tell you more! Maybe you can look her up somewhere. I wasn't able to see the show, so can't tell you what I thought about it, but I hope this helps . . .

Hey guys...

I watched the show about the deaf woman who works for the FBI.  It aired tonight on PAX TV.  For entertainment value, it was okay.  But again this deaf woman can lip-read every frickin' word that she sees. The latest statistics that I heard mentioned that even very good lipreaders can pick up only around 40% of the words being said, the remaining 60% being pieced together from contextual cues and guesswork.  Anyone know any information about the actress?  Is she really deaf?  The signs she used were clear, as was her voice.  There was an interpreter in her training class, but she had little screen time.  Aside from the fact that it looks like she might perpetuate some myths about deaf people, there seems to be some entertainment value there.  I think I'll watch it again next week. 

What were your impressions?
