Patrice Meaume Logo Artist 

Disarming Disability Patrice Meaume

{In memoriam} Patrice  created art which enhanced our world greatly. We miss you, Patrice.

​

Patrice was born without his right hand. He quickly realized this difference raised questions and provoked dialogue. Patrice saw that people with disabilities were usually represented in situations of dependency, illness, or as pure inspiration. Patrice decided to create illustrations representing people living "normally."  People with disabilities are different, but it's normal to be different! Patrice's mission was, "To let us be proud to be how we are born, proud of who we are."

 

Patrice started normal-persons.com, a clothing line dedicated to physically different people.  Patrice's family confines to fill orders placed on this website. Additionally, Patrice's brother is dedicated to continuing to share his work through his Instagram platform.

David Bobke Audio Editor

Disarming Disability David Bobke

David was born and bred in Milwaukee, WI. He graduated from UW-Milwaukee with a degree in Professional and Technical Writing, so he could write you a very detailed set of instructions that doubled as a good bedtime story.

 

He currently works in the healthcare field (while technically true, it's not as glamorous as it sounds – remember, he knows how to jazz up a boring job title). David has worked in the sporting field in the past, working for the Milwaukee Mustangs, Milwaukee Torrent, and as a producer and writer for “What's the Score? The Sports News Quiz” with Public House Media Founder Baxter Colburn.
