Keynote speaker Greg Smith told the Quest audience how he has turned his physical challenges into his greatest strengths. He has given inspiration to millions through On A Roll - Talk Radio on Life & Disability, a nationally syndicated radio show that he created and hosts from his power wheelchair.
The 2006 Quest audience was also given the opportunity to view "ON A ROLL: Family, Disability, and the American Dream," Joanne Caputo's first documentary following her 1994 children's video, "Ballerina, Ballerina."
