Bob Acosta, founder of www.radiooutofthepast.org and former schoolteacher
is our guest on this evening's Books And Beyond. Chosen as one of the five
outstanding men in California by the California Jaycees in 1969, Bob became
the first blind teacher there.
His devotion to helping others did not stop at the end of his teaching
career. For a number of years, with Pat Price and others, he has run
successfully the website accessibleworld.org.How was accessibleworld.org
founded? What is its mission? What events, symposiums, and presentations
does it provide? Where do new ideas come from? How have recent changes
affected future plans? At a time when Mr. Acosta could sit back and enjoy
the fruits of his labor, why is involvement in accessibleworld.org so
important?
Seldom do we have an opportunity to spotlight a man so dedicated to helping
a community. Bob Acosta is a man interested and committed to making the
world better and in increasing opportunities available for those of us in
the visually impaired community.
A past guest on Books And Beyond, he is a dynamic speakker who brings
enthusiasm to all he does.

Come tonight to hear a man passionate in his dedication and commitment to
helping others.
