For many, Braille has and continues to play an important role in our lives. 
This year marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Louis Braille. At 
present, an exhibit honoring  his work and Braille itself is traveling the 
country. Very likely, there is no one who knows more about the man himself 
than tonight'sBooks And Beyond guest. C. Michael Mellor, former editor of 
the Matilda Ziegler magazine now residing in Brooklyn, will tell us tonight 
about Louis Braille's life and work, how he became interested in him and 
what Braille means to him. Has its time come and gone? In the days of 
adaptive technology and access to so very much in audio form, has Braille 
still got a place in our world? Take an hour from the debate and join us 
tonight. Whether or not you personally read or enjoy reading Braille 
yourself, it is a time we can spend together learning about a man who has 
had a significant impact on all our lives.
