About the Presenter
Puppeteer
Danny Housley
Danny Housley specializes in short-form puppetry work for adults. He has performed at venues/events such as XPT at the Center for Puppetry Arts, the Puckin’ Fuppet Show, Red Light Café and 7 Stages. His pieces often feature an “accessibility twist” (such as including his white cane as a prominent character and sharing shadow stories about the pitfalls of navigating Atlanta’s sidewalks with limited vision…). Danny is the Assistive Technology Equipment Case Manager for the Center for Assistive Technologies at Sheperd Center and has a passion for sharing resources in accessibility with the ATL arts community.
