Send us a textWhat happens when a football tackle changes everything? Ken Kunken's life pivoted dramatically in 1970 when he broke his neck during a Cornell University football game, leaving him almost completely paralyzed from the shoulders down. Doctors delivered a devastating prognosis—they didn't expect him to survive the week. If he did, they predicted a shortened life in a nursing home.Ken refused to accept these limitations. Just eleven days after hospital discharge, he returned to Cornell—navigating a campus with no wheelchair accessibility—and became the first quadriplegic to graduate from the university. This was merely the beginning of his boundary-breaking journey.Through raw, honest conversation, Ken shares how he earned two master's degrees and faced crushing employment discrimination despite his impressive credentials. When over 200 job applications went unanswered, he finally found opportunity at Abilities Inc., counseling others with disabilities. But Ken wasn't finished redefining possibility—he graduated from law school and spent over 40 years as an Assistant District Attorney, even though he couldn't initially fit through the courtroom doors in his wheelchair.Perhaps most powerfully, Ken opens up about finding love later in life and becoming a father to triplet sons through in vitro fertilization. Now in their twenties and attending prestigious universities, his sons represent the life Ken was told would be impossible.Throughout our conversation, Ken's philosophy shines through: "Just because something has not been done before doesn't mean you cannot do it now." His memoir, "I Dream of Things That Never Were," captures this spirit of relentless possibility. Whether you're facing challenges or simply need inspiration, Ken's story proves that with determination and support, extraordinary achievements are possible regardless of physical limitations.Subscribe to Glass Half Full for more conversations that challenge assumptions and celebrate the resilience of the human spirit.Please reach Ken: www.kenkunken.com, kennethkunken@gmail.com.

He became the first quadriplegic to graduate from Cornell University, earned multiple Ivy League degrees, and went on to have an impressive 40-year career as an Assistant District Attorney. Ken shares how he transitioned from an aspiring engineer to a motivational speaker, disability advocate, and father of triplets—all while overcoming the odds.

RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TN - Join host J. Paul Newman, a retired Assistant District Attorney, in today’s episode as he delves into the intriguing world of the Rutherford Coun
In 1970, while a junior in Cornell University's College of Engineering, Ken Kunken broke his neck making a tackle on a kick-off in a lightweight football game against Columbia University. Ken sustained a spinal cord injury at the C 4-5 level, rendering him a quadriplegic, almost totally paralyzed from the shoulders down. Ken spent more than 9 months in various hospitals and rehabilitation facilities. While still a patient, Ken testified before a United States Senate Sub-Committee on Health Care, chaired by Senator Edward Kennedy. In 1971, almost 20 years before the Americans with Disabilities Act, Ken returned to the Cornell campus, where he completed his undergraduate degree in Industrial Engineering. Ken estimates that he had to be pulled up or bounced down close to 100 steps just to attend his first day of classes. Ken is the first quadriplegic to graduate from Cornell University. Upon graduation, Ken decided to change his career goal. He wanted to work with and help people, particularly those with disabilities. Ken went on to earn a Master of Arts degree at Cornell in education and a Master of Education degree at Columbia University in psychology. Ken is the first quadriplegic to earn a graduate degree from Cornell University. In 1977, Ken was hired by Abilities Inc. in Albertson, NY to be its College Work Orientation Program Coordinator. Ken coordinated a program which provided educationally related work experiences for severely disabled college students. He also maintained a vocational counseling caseload of more than 20 severely disabled individuals. While working at the Center, Ken became a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor and made numerous public presentations on non-discrimination, affirmative action and employment of the disabled. In 1977, Ken was named the Long Island Rehabilitation Associations “Rehabilitant of the Year” and in 1979 Ken was the subject of one of the Reverend Norman Vincent Peale's nationally syndicated radio broadcasts “The American Character”. Wanting to accomplish still more, Ken enrolled in Hofstra University's School of Law, where he earned a Juris Doctor degree in 1982. Ken then went to work as an assistant district attorney in Nassau County, Long Island. Ken was promoted a number of times during his more than 40 years with the District Attorney's Office, eventually becoming one of the Deputy Bureau Chiefs of the County Court Trial Bureau, where he helped supervise more than 20 other assistant district attorneys. In addition, over his years working in the Office, Ken supervised more than 50 student interns. In 1996 Ken received the Honorable Thomas E. Ryan, Jr. Award presented by the Court Officers Benevolent Association of Nassau County for outstanding and dedicated service as an Assistant District Attorney. In 1999, Ken was awarded the George M. Estabrook Distinguished Service Award presented by the Hofstra Alumni Association, Inc. Beginning in 2005, for nine consecutive years, “The Ken Kunken Most Valuable Player Award” was presented annually by The Adirondack Trust Allegiance Bowl in Saratoga Springs, NY, in recognition of Ken's personal accomplishments, contributions to society and extraordinary courage. In 2009, Ken became a member of the Board of Directors of Abilities Inc., and in 2017 he became a member of the Board of Directors for the parent company of Abilities Inc., the Viscardi Center. In 2020, Ken was inducted into “The Susan M. Daniels Disability Mentoring Hall of Fame,” as a member of the class of 2019. In March 2024, Ken was named one of the Long Island Business News Influencers in Law. Ken retired from full-time employment in 2016, but continued to work with the District Attorney's Office for the next eight years in a part time capacity, providing continuing legal education lectures and litigation guidance. For years, Ken has tried to inspire people to do more with their lives. In October 2023, Ken's memoir “I Dream of Things That Never Were: The Ken Kunken Story” was published. In 2003 Ken married Anna and in 2005 they became the proud parents of triplet boys: Joey, Jimmy and Timmy. On June 23, 2023 the triplets graduated from Oceanside High School, fifty-five years after Ken had graduated from the same school. 3 Top Tips 1 . Try to improve your knowledge, your skills and your performance. Get the best education possible, and never stop learning. Don't be satisfied with the status quo. 2 . Strive to make the impossible, possible. Just because something has not been done before, does not mean that you cannot do it now. 3 . Find time to help others. Years from now be able to say that you did everything you possibly could to make not only your life, but the lives of those around you better as well.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Doyle Glass, author of the book Swift Sword. Doyle is an author, historian, and sculptor dedicated to honoring those who fought for freedom. He is a master at recounting true stories of brave men and women who were outnumbered and out-gunned but continued to battle toe-to-toe with ferocious opponents in war. Doyle Glass was born in Midland, Texas among the fifth generation of a pioneer ranching family who was raised with an appreciation for hard work, adventure, and honor. After earning degrees in history and law from Southern Methodist University, he completed law school and worked as an Assistant District Attorney in Texas. Later, he served as Assistant Attorney General in Kentucky, prosecuting some of the worst violent crimes in the state. In 2000, Glass turned to the arts as a way to tell stories of his childhood heroes. He conceived and sculpted a bronze statue of John Squires, who braved enemy fire to save others during WWII and received the Medal of Honor. The statue stands in downtown Louisville, Kentucky as a reminder of the sacrifices made by local citizens who fought and died for freedom. In 2008, Glass designed and sculpted the Texas Medal of Honor Memorial, dedicated to George O'Brien who earned the Medal of Honor during the Korean War. The memorial stands at the International Artillery Museum in Saint Jo, Texas as a symbol recognizing those who earned America's highest award for combat valor. Besides writing and sculpting, Glass' greatest pride is being a loving husband and father to his wife and three children where they reside in Dallas, Texas. In my book review, I stated I recently finished reading Swift Sword, and it's a book that I believe should be on everyone's TBR. I grew up during the Vietnam era, which meant that my history classes didn't cover the war. I only knew what little I paid attention to on the news. Swift Sword helped me see more than American protests and swash-buckling MASH-style soldiers that often depict this tragic war. This amazing book focuses on the Swift Operation and the Marines of Mike 3/5. Doyle did thorough research, taking the reader on a detailed journey of those days of fighting. But more than that, he helps us understand the patriotism, the longing, the hope, and the fear of these young men as they faced impossible challenges. As I finished the last page, I wondered how I would have fared in such a fight, and considered the resilience that pulled these soldiers through. Perhaps, like the men in Swift Sword, we all have that kind of strength within us.

Walking away from this week's conversation I have a new theory:If time-machines existed, a lot of attorneys would still be trying their first case. We've talked before about how perfectionism runs deep in the legal profession, but the concept of Anxious Advocacy as a root cause for this trait is something I hadn't run across until preparing for this latest episode. It's also the reason for my time-machine theory. No matter if you win or lose, as a trial attorney, you are always doing a post-mortem on a case. Why didn't something work?What can be done better?What did we miss?And while those are valuable questions to ask, all attorneys, but especially young attorneys, can get so worried about what they might do wrong that they suddenly believe they can't do ANYTHING right.And while these are my words, not her's, I think Anxious Advocacy might best be described as a self-induced imposter syndrome. To talk about this and a whole lot more, I'm joined this week by Renée Pardo.A practicing attorney with over 25 years of trial experience in both the public and private sectors, she has been an Assistant District Attorney in both Texas and New York.And as of February 2024, she is also the founder of Renée Pardo Coaching which provides coaching for attorneys, particularly women, struggling with anxious advocacy, helping them to navigate new spaces and advocate for themselves.We talk about the challenges (both old and new) faced by women in the law, Renée's skeptical embrace of self-improvement models, and why lawyers in particular seem to fall for the illusion of control.

For much of his adult life as an athlete and attorney, Len Elmore has balanced academics and athletics. That work continues to this day as a Senior Lecturer at Columbia University in the Sports Management program. The balancing act began long ago growing up in New York City, then attending Power Memorial Academy, the University of Maryland, playing in the NBA, going to Harvard Law School, serving as an Assistant District Attorney in Brooklyn and beyond.

It's #Aprilsweeps where we celebrate the TV movies made by New World Television. We're kicking things off with 1989's False Witness starring Phylicia Rashad (The Cosby Show) and Philip Michael Thomas (Miami Vice). Lynne Jacoby (Phylicia Rashad) is a district attorney investigating the attempted murder of a popular daytime TV talk show host not unlike luminaries like Sally Jessy Raphael. Bobby Marsh (Philip Michael Thomas), an Assistant District Attorney and Jacoby's lover, joins the investigation and shows the world that not all investigators are good at their job. What lacks in real suspense is more than made up for with uncomfortable shoulder kissing. We learn that Marc doesn't recognize the difference between CSI and Law & Order, Erica talks about the many musical roles Philip Michael Thomas was up for, Ryan struggles to pronounce "Phylicia" and we debate which is the best Miami Tourism Board theme song. You will want to witness this episode.

The state of Wisconsin has firmly established itself as a battleground state: Four of the six past presidential elections have been decided by fewer than 23,000 votes, and the political stakes have never been higher. Yet, the state's politics echo many that we see here in Ohio, right down to a tense dispute over Wisconsin's Republican-drawn legislative maps, which were overturned in December.rnrnIn April 2023, Justice Janet C. Protasiewicz was elected to serve her first term on the Wisconsin Supreme Court after a race that garnered national attention. Her accession was viewed as a liberal shift for the court, the first in 15 years, and as a check on a long-standing conservative grip on the state's government.rnrnPrior to her election, Justice Protasiewicz spent nearly a decade on the bench as a circuit court judge in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. Before her time as a judge, she served more than 25 years as Assistant District Attorney, where she prosecuted serious crimes. Throughout her career, Justice Protasiewicz has been deeply involved in the community and has held many leadership positions.rnrnJoin us at the City Club as we hear from Justice Protasiewicz in conversation with Dean of CSU College of Law Lee Fisher on the latest in Wisconsin, and what Ohio can learn from Wisconsin's highest court.

All of which Kevie sees as “ongoing, always changing, and forever works in progress.” They're also the perfect examples of what Kevie means when she says, “Home is your memory maker.” https://www.kamurphyinteriors.com/ https://www.instagram.com/kamurphyinteriors/

Andrew is the Owner and Managing Partner of the Salinas Defense Law Firm, PLLC where he specializes in Criminal Defense and Immigration law. Since recording this episode, he has also started his own firm in Houston, Texas! He has secured many dismissals and favorable plea deals for clients charged with serious crimes, many of whom were facing deportation if they plead guilty to certain convictions. Prior to starting his own firm, Andrew was an attorney at a prominent Criminal Defense and Immigration law firm in Austin, TX that specialized in "crimmigration". Andrew handled hundreds of cases, including misdemeanors like Driving While Intoxicated and Assault Family Violence and felonies like Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Engaging in Organized Crime. He also has experience as an Assistant District Attorney at the Kings County District Attorney's Office and as a Managing Attorney in charge of a brand-new Immigration Department at a boutique law firm in Brooklyn. Andrew graduated from Baylor University from the Baylor Interdisciplinary Honors Program with a B.A. in History and a minor in Rhetoric & Argumentation. He graduated from the Washington and Lee University School of Law where he actively competed and coached in several national moot court competitions. He had the pleasure of serving as a law clerk for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, a civil rights organization, in Washington, D.C., as a legal intern for the most respected non-profit immigration legal aid organization in the D.C.-Maryland-Virginia region, Ayuda, and as a Summer Fellow at the New York County District Attorney's Office in Manhattan. While in the Immigrant Rights Clinic in law school, Andrew and a fellow student attorney fought for their client to be granted asylum in an uphill battle case – and won. He also got a taste for federal appellate work when his team filed an appeal before the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals for a Stateless client who had been fighting to remain in the U.S. for 20 years. In addition to being an editor for the Washington and Lee Journal for Civil Rights and Social Justice, he also proudly formed the leadership board of the Latin American Law Students' Association, serving as Moot Court Director and Vice President. https://salinasdefense.com/ https://www.instagram.com/abogadotejano https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553453914861 #leducentertainment #SpaghettiOnTheWall #newpodcast #trailer #LegalJourney #AndrewSalinas #CrimeAndImmigration
