An excellent Iowa Public Radio (IPR) profile of Dr. Timothy Schmidt, IDB client, advocate, and concert pianist, was aired this week on IPR. Dr. Schmidt gave a jaw-dropping musical performance with his daughter Marie at IDB's White Cane Safety Day Open House on Wednesday, October 15. Rob Dillard, reporter for IPR and producer of Being in Iowa, attended the event, caught the Schmidt's concert, and conducted an interview. Listen to "A Concert Pianist Adapts to Blindness" online on IPR's web site. [1]
