Including Dan From: UM Alumni Association Dan Habib hadn't given much thought to the experiences of people with disabilities. Their lives rarely intersected with his. That changed in 2000, when his second son, Samuel, then 1 year old, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Caring for his son could have become an obstacle to Habib's career. Instead, it thrust the photojournalist into a new career as a documentary filmmaker, which included him in Samuel’s world. In "Including Samuel," Habib, ’87, tells the story of several young people with varied disabilities - Samuel among them - and the benefits and challenges of inclusion in schools and communities. Public television showed the 2007 Emmy-nominated film nationally in 2009, and it was translated into 17 languages.
